Brush Pick-Up

Brush pickup in the City of Harvard is in the months of May, July and October. Pickup begins on the second Monday of these months and will continue until all wards have been picked up. 

To be sure your brush is removed, please have all branches by the curb before pickup begins, but no earlier than one week ahead of time. All branches must be a minimum of three feet long, the longer the better. Please stack branches with the cut end to the street. Stumps, bushes, plants, leaves or weeds will not be picked up by the City. The time limit for brush piles is 20 minutes. After 20 minutes the resident is charged $125.00 an hour with a minimum charge of $50.00.

Storm damage brush should be put to the curb for pickup; the City does not pick up brush on private property.
