Branches from downed trees and lot clearing will not be picked up. A commercial tree service must be utilized. Limbs and branches must be root free, no larger than 6 inches in diameter and placed next to the street with the cut ends facing the street. Piles should be limited to an equivalent 4 X 8 pile of wood.
