Branch Pickup

Curbside branch pickup is provided by the City and by Kimble.

Kimble will pick up brush and small tree trimmings year-round. They must be cut to less than 6 inches in diameter, no more than 4 feet in length, bundled and securely tied, and less than 50 pounds. Smaller branches can be put in your Kimble yard waste container, personal containers that are 33 gallons or less labelled "Yard Waste", or in paper yard waste bags. The bundled brush and branches or containers can then be placed at the curb with refuse carts.

Larger branches and shrubs are picked up by the City using the chipper truck. All cut ends need to face the curb with no items other than branches in the pile. City crews follow a route through the city and there is no specific day for pickup. Depending on the amount of branches to be collected, it can take the crews as long as two to three weeks to complete a full route. 

Branch pickup is not a regular service during leaf and snow seasons because the equipment shares the same trucks as the branch chipper. Do not mix branches and brush into leaf piles. Leaf piles should contain leaves only.

 

Please note: The City will not pick up yard waste generated by professional tree contractors and landscapers.

Christmas Trees

Christmas trees will be collected the first and second full weeks of January. Ornaments, tinsel, etc. must be removed from the tree and they shouldn't be encased in plastic.
