Calendar

The first tree limb recycling event will be held March 14, 2026. Our last limb collection event will be November 14, 2026.

From March through November, the City hosts free tree limb recycling events for residents to dispose of broken/downed or cut tree limbs free of charge. Emergency tree limb recycling events are also held throughout the year in the event of tree-damaging storms. Each recycling event is listed on the calendar below. The City turns all the tree limbs into mulch that residents can pick up free of charge. For more information on mulch pick up, see the self-serve mulch site tab.
