Brush pick up guidelines

  • Stack brush in a neat pile on the boulevard, not in the street (NO alley pick up), with butt ends all one way, parallel to the street.
  • Keep brush at least 5 feet away from overhead wires, fences, refuse containers, parked cars, etc.
  • Do not use tarps under or on top of your brush (we use machinery to pick up the brush and the tarps hamper the pick-up).
  • DO NOT put brush in your refuse containers.
  • Only brush which is generated on Hopkins’ residential properties will be picked up.
  • Brush is defined as tree limbs, twigs, woody vines, and branches up to a maximum of 6-inches in diameter and 15 feet in length. No logs or lumber are accepted.
