City offering no fee brush chipping – WE ARE NO LONGER ACCEPTING RESERVATIONS, THE SCHEDULE IS FULL as of 9/12/18.

As of 9/12/18:  We are no longer taking reservations.  The schedule is full. 

The City is offering up to 150 households 30 minutes of no fee brush chipping during the week of Sept. 24. The service is first come, first served, and residents must make a reservation by contacting the Division of Public Works no later than 4:30 p.m. on Thursday, September 20, 2018. Registration can be completed online, in person or by calling Public Works at (989) 779-5401.

Brush chipping will be performed once per address at no cost for a period of up to 30 minutes. Residents may not transfer a portion of the 30-minute maximum to another resident. If residents have more brush than what can be chipped within the allotted 30 minutes, they have the option of being billed $1.82 per minute for each additional minute, or, at the time the reservation is made, can request crews stop at 30 minutes.

Residents must adhere to the City’s regular brush chipping guidelines. A letter outlining the guidelines will be sent to registrants in advance. Brush chipping will be completed at curbside only. No chipping will occur in the alleys.

After the completion of the no fee program, the City will offer brush chipping services for a fee. Residents may also take yard waste and brush to the Isabella County Materials Recovery Facility at 4208 East River Road.

To make a reservation or to learn more, contact the Division of Public Works at (989) 779-5401 or publicworks@mt-pleasant.org, or visit the office at 1303 N. Franklin Street.
