Brush, Leaf and Yard Waste Collection

Special Brush Collection

Due to recent severe weather, the city is conducting a special free citywide bulk brush collection. Brush and tree debris should have been placed on the parkway in front of your home by the morning of Monday, June 15.

Only loose, unbundled brush that is not bagged is being collected during this special brush pickup. Brush and yard waste in bags or bundles still require stickers and will be collected through the weekly yard waste collection program.

The special collection is expected to conclude by the end of the day on Saturday, June 27. After that time, any remaining brush on private property must be disposed of through the weekly yard waste program or through a privately contracted tree removal company.

The City of Naperville provides several programs on a weekly to annual basis to help residents handle a variety of yard waste.
