The next brush collection in Bowling Green will begin on Monday, May 19. It is no longer necessary for city residents to call and register for brush collections.
To ensure pickup, residents should place their brush on the curb by 7 a.m. on May 19. This is the second brush collection of the year. The next collection will be in September.
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 6 inches in diameter and 6 feet in length as well as stumps will not be collected. The city, at its discretion, will not collect entire trees placed in the right of way because of work by a contractor.
Brush should not be placed in cul-de-sac green space as it may block fire hydrants, or may be unmanageable for city equipment to remove.
Pickup is by ward and not by normal refuse collection day.
Residents are encouraged to visit the city’s website for more information and details. Information about this program may be found on the Public Works Division web page or residents may call Public Works at 419-354-6227.
