Spring 2024 Residential Brush Collection Date & Guidelines

The City of Hillsdale’s Department of Public Services will perform a one-time citywide brush collection beginning Monday, April 1, 2024.

City residents should place any brush they want collected out at the curb prior to 7 a.m. on Monday, April 1, 2024. This brush collection is intended for residential properties within city limits only. It is not for commercial or industrial properties, or to help clear out wooded lots.

Once crews have visited a street, they will not make a return trip, so any brush that is not placed out at the curb when crews pass through the area will not be collected. There will be no exceptions made.

Please adhere to the following guidelines:

• Items should be less than eight inches (8”) in diameter and less than eight feet (8’) in length.
• Do not pile brush around fire hydrants or push it into the street or sidewalk. Do not place brush in alleys, crews will not collect there.
• We ask that you do not pile brush within 30 feet of an intersection and remain mindful of pile height to maintain clear sight lines for the safety of pedestrians and motorists.

Please be advised that there will be no spring leaf collection this year by the City of Hillsdale. Instead, residents are encouraged to mow and mulch or compost any fallen leaves.

The hours of operation for the Brush Drop-off Site, which will open Monday, April 1, 2024, are Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. Proof of residency is required; please check in at the DPS Office upon arrival.
