Citywide Tree Debris Collection

The City Public Works Department will provide a FREE citywide collection of winter storm related Tree Debris during the week of March 1, 2010.

City Residents may place Tree Limbs at the curb for collection no later than 7am of their scheduled trash and recycling collection day. Each street will be worked one time only.

Tree debris cut up by contractors for residents should be hauled away by contractors and will not be collected as part of this collection.

Additionally, a revised loose leaf collection schedule has been established to cover routes that we weren't able to collect due to the winter storms. The revised schedule can be found at https://www.charlottesville.org/Index.aspx?page=2123

Questions may be directed to the Public Service Division at 970-3895.
