DOs & DON’Ts FOR BRUSH/STORM DEBRIS PICKUP
DO:
- Place brush, construction, and bulky items in one pile for collection
- Set out fence posts with concrete attached but no loose concrete will be collected
- Cut large tree branches into smaller pieces
- Place small piles of brush and debris in the green cart for collection, provided the lid can still close
- Create a separate pile for household appliances (refrigerators and freezers should not contain any food items and have their doors removed for safety)
- Call (361) 826-CITY (2489) to have refrigerators picked up. All other appliances can be taken to the J.C. Elliott Transfer Station at Highway 286 at Ayers Street
DON’T:
- Place debris under power lines or low hanging trees
- Park cars or place obstructions near curbside brush which will prevent cleanup crews from removing items safely and efficiently
- Place hazardous waste out as it is not being collected but it can be taken to the J.C. Elliott Transfer Station at Highway 286 at Ayers Street
- Place recyclable items in the green bin (it is for trash only)
- Place brush or trash in the blue bin (it is for recyclables only)
- Block storm drains when setting brush out for curbside pickup
- Block sidewalks and driveways when setting brush out for curbside pickup
