Description

From the City of Brighton: The City of Brighton's curbside yard waste collection program will begin the week of April 1, 2020 and will continue through November 26. Please note that residents whose trash is picked up on Tuesdays, their first pick up is Tuesday, March 31. This service is provided to ALL City of Brighton residents. During the spring and summer months, yard waste will be picked up on regularly-scheduled trash pickup days every other week by our refuse contractor, Waste Management. Brush must be cut in 4-foot lengths or less and bundled. Limbs cannot be greater than 4 inches in diameter. All grass and leaves must be placed in compostable paper bags or approved and labeled containers. Bags or containers must be no greater than 50 pounds in weight. There is a 10-bag or bundle limit per pickup during the spring and summer. Additionally, the Leaf Collection Program will begin the week of October 5. At that time, yard waste/leaf bags are picked up every week on your normal trash pickup day through November 26. Remember, burning leaves or other yard waste is not allowed in the City of Brighton. During the spring and summer, City staff does not perform curbside leaf vacuuming; this service is only done in the fall.
