From CITY OF BOWLING GREEN
In response to the recent high winds, the City of Bowling Green Public Works Department will be conducting a special brush collection from March 17 – 20. To ensure pickup, residents must place their brush on the curb by Tuesday, March 17, at 7 a.m. There is no need for residents to register. The next collection will be in April.
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. 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.
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.
