Brush collection is provided several times throughout the growing season by the Oswego Public Works Department.?
Zones
The Village has implemented brush collection by zones. There are two zones. We will collect brush from each zone once in May, July and October. The last pickup will be in October just prior to the start of the leaf collection program.

For Collection
Place all brush at the curb by 7:00 a.m. on Monday morning of the designated week but no earlier than noon the Friday before. Pile brush neatly so that the ends of the branches are all facing the same direction. Do not put brush in a container or in the street.
The Public Works trucks will pass through an area once and will not return for brush placed after the deadline.
Restrictions
Brush is defined as tree and bush branches that are less than 5? in diameter. The Brush Collection Program is not intended to handle branches, logs or tree stumps as a result of large-scale tree trimming or removal. Place unbundled brush parallel or perpendicular to the street in neat bundles with all cut ends facing the same direction as shown in the photo above. Do not put brush in a container or in the street. We will not pick up logs, wood, root balls, cuttings, or grass clippings. Crews will place an orange tag on your door indicating the reason they did not pick up the brush if it is the wrong material or placed at the curb prior to the deadline.
The Village provides this service for residents. The Village does not accept landscaping waste, tree branches, or tree removals as a result of contracted work. Crews will not remove brush from commercial, industrial or other non-residential properties.
