Residents will remove side branches over 1” in diameter and pile in uniformed stack or bundles with butt-end toward curb.
The diameter of the brush may not exceed 4”.
The City brush pickup crew will only spend 10 minutes at each residence (this service was not put in place for a whole tree removal).
Brush is to be put out in front along the curb or street, easily accessible.
Brush will be processed by a chipper to produce mulch, which will be made available to Breese residents without cost through contacting the Utilities office at 618-526-7151.
Residents wanting this service must call Breese City Hall “before the last Friday of the month” at 618-526-7731. This advance notice is required so a route can be developed. There will be no exceptions.
Addresses of those participating in the City Wide Yard Sale will be published in the Breese Journal the week of October 5th. A list of addresses may also be found at City Hall in the lobby.
Available for City of Breese residents, a city truck and employee(s) will be at the dump location, leaves can be in cans and dumped or bags that will be discarded by the city employee(s).
Dumpsters for residents will be available to get rid of larger items (i.e., appliances, furniture, mattresses, lawn mowers, etc.). We will NOT accept construction debris, tires, electronics, yard waste, hazardous materials, paint/sealers (unless dried).
