Hazelwood's 2011 Branch Chipping Schedule Has Begun

The City of Hazelwood's Street Maintenance Department has begun its annual collection of tree limbs and shrubbery trimmings. The program began on March 14. Your street will be picked up one time only. Carefully review the attached street list to find out your pick-up date.

Residents should stack their trimmings at the curb by 7 a.m. on the Monday morning of their designated pick-up week. The cut end should be facing the street. City crews will collect brush on each street one time only during your scheduled collection week; therefore, it is very important that you abide by the street schedule pick-up list linked below. 

Branches should not be cut into short pieces. Please do not put any wire, metal, trash, garden waste or other debris in the brush that is to be chipped. This could cause serious injury to the crew and damage the chipper machinery.
