Brush Collection is Over for 2024

Scheduled brush collection from the curb is over for 2024.

You should not place any brush for collection out for pickup at this time.

All neighborhoods have received all of their scheduled collections.

Curbside pickup of brush will return in the spring of 2025.

Use Drop-off Sites for Brush

The Streets Division drop-off sites will accept brush cut by Madison residents.

In order to use the sites, you will need to provide proof of residency.

Residents are restricted to one trip daily and the maximum amount of material that can be dropped in the one trip is equivalent to what would fit into the back of standard pickup truck bed or on a 5' x 8' trailer.

Oversized loads will be denied use of the drop-off sites. Contractors are also prohibited from using the free drop-off sites.

For site locations, hours, and other restrictions, visit the drop-off sites page at www.cityofmadison.com/DropOffSites

Do Not Mix Brush Into Your Fall Leaf Piles. Mixed Piles Will Not Be Collected.

Yard waste and brush are different.

Think of brush as branches or limbs. It's the woody material you've cut from your trees, shrubs, or bushes. It has to that measure at least 18 inches in length, be shorter than 8 feet long, and have a diameter less than 8 inches. We feed this material into a wood chipper to make mulch.

Yard waste and leaves is the softer plant material you have raked or pulled from your lawns or gardens. This is hauled to a private facility for composting.

Piles of yard waste and leaves with brush mixed in will not be collected by yard waste collection crews.
