Brush Trash Collection Department

 

The City of Brush! collects household solid waste once a week on a rotating basis, depending on where you live in the City. Call City Hall to find out the day of the week your trash is collected and where the pickup site is or click on the link to the right of this page to view the map.

 

Household waste can only be placed in City approved containers. We sell 96 gallon containers for $100 each. These poly karts have wheels and are especially designed for automated pickup. $30 down and $10 a month will get you one delivered right to your home.

 

Special collections are possible by calling City Hall to pick up items that will not fit in polykarts.
