Large Brush Collection

Collection Guidelines

• Brush should be between 5 and 15 feet in length.
• Tree trunks more than 8 inches in diameter should be 3-feet-long or less.
• Place large brush at the curb in front of your house by 6:30 a.m. on the first day of your scheduled collection week.
• Cut ends should face the street.
• Stack loosely along the curb in one row, not more than 15 feet across and no higher than 4 feet.
• Do not block the sidewalk.
• Do not extend into the street.
• To prevent damage to your property, keep items 5 feet away from your trash cart, mailbox, fences or walls, water meter, telephone connection box and parked cars. Do not place any items under low-hanging tree limbs or power lines.
• Austin Resource Recovery only collects large brush from its residential trash and recycling customers and from homes in some recently annexed areas.
• Items will not be collected if they are in an alley in any area including Hyde Park, or if they are in front of a business or a vacant lot.
