Oswego Brush Pickup Starts Monday

Submitted by the Village of Oswego:

The Village of Oswego provides brush pickup for residents the last full work week of each month from March to November. Brush pickup is not associated with normal garbage/refuse pick up and is handled by the Public Works Department.

Depending on the volume and the weather, this process may take longer than one week.  

Residents are reminded that all brush must be at the curb by 7 a.m. on Monday of the designated week listed below.

All unbundled brush must be placed neatly and parallel or perpendicular to the street with all cut ends facing the same direction.

The Public Works trucks will pass through an area once and continue on. Please do not put brush out after the trucks have been through your area.  

Brush must be less than five inches in diameter and must be tree and bush branches only.  

No logs, wood, root balls, cuttings or clippings or grass clippings will be picked up.  Please do not put brush in a container.  

If your brush is not picked up, an orange tag will be left on your door indicating the reason.  

Mark your calendars for the 2014 pickups: March 24, April 21, May 19, June 23, July 21, Aug. 25, Sept. 22, Oct. 27 and Nov. 17.
