BG residents should call Sept. 3-9 to schedule brush pickup

The window to schedule a September brush collection will be open from Sept. 3 to Sept. 9. Residents requesting brush collection should call 419-354-6227 no later than Sept. 9 so that they may be added to the list of locations where crews will stop.

Collection is scheduled to begin on Sept. 16.

Brush collections occur during the third week of April, May, September and October. Residents simply need to call Public Works by the second Monday of the respective month to schedule a brush collection.

Current restrictions for brush collection remain – such as the size of tree limbs and no yard waste (grass clippings). Residents are encouraged to visit the Public Works Division webpage or call 419-354-6227 for program details.
