From CITY OF BOWLING GREEN
The next brush collection will begin on Monday, Sept. 21. To ensure pickup, residents must place their brush on the curb by Monday, Sept. 21, by 7 a.m. This is the third brush collection of the year. The next collection for this year will be in October.
Brush should not be placed curbside any sooner than one week prior to pick up.
Brush and limbs should be placed loosely at the curb – not bundled. Brush mixed with leaves or other yard debris will not be collected. Limbs more than six inches in diameter and six feet in length, as well as stumps, will not be collected. Do not place brush near utility poles, mailboxes, guy wires, or any other structures. The city, at its discretion, will not collect entire tree(s) placed in the right-of-way because of work by a contractor.
For cul-de-sacs, do not place brush in the cul-de-sac green space as it may block fire hydrants, and/or it is unmanageable for city equipment to remove.
It is encouraged to note that pickup is by ward and not by normal refuse collection day. To be included on the collection route, residents must place their brush on the curb by Monday at 7 a.m.
