Spring Brush Pick-Up was completed on Monday, April 15. Brush in the right-of-way must be removed by Tuesday, April 30, 2024. Failure to comply is in violation of Section 660.15 of the City Codified Ordinances. The City of Perrysburg will remove the brush and the owner of the affected property will be billed for the cost of the work. If said billing is not paid, it will then be certified by the city clerk to the tax duplicate book as an assessment against the property. The minimum charge is $100.00 for one hour or any part thereof. Each additional hour, or any part thereof, will be charged at the rate of $75.00 per hour. Please contact the Department of Public Service at 419-872-8020 if you have any questions. Click here for more information about yard waste disposal options.

2024 Spring Brush Pick-Up begins on Monday, April 1. Homeowners must have brush at the curb by 7 a.m.

The Spring Brush Collection Status Dashboard will be updated at the end of each business day so you can track where crews have been.

PREPARE:

• Limit on length is 12 feet.
• This year our "out by date" is Monday, April 1 at 7:00 a.m.
• All brush must be placed at the curb, not in the alley.
• Pile brush PARALLEL with street away from mailboxes, trees, fire hydrants and light poles.
• Do not tie into bundles - stack loosely.
• Place small clippings and twigs in personal garbage cans (not in City issued Toters) so they can be easily dumped.
• City crews will take branches, bushes, logs, stumps, firewood and Christmas trees.
• Crews will begin on the WEST side of town this year and work their way EAST.
• Once crews have been down your street, THEY WILL NOT RETURN. A supervisor will check daily to make sure all brush piles were picked up.
