CURBSIDE CHIPPING SERVICE
Cranbury Township's Chipping Service for tree branches, shrubbery and other yard clippings commences the third Wednesday of each month. This is the start date and not necessarily the day that the chipper will collect your brush.
To make the chipping process more efficient, a few regulations are needed:
- All material to be chipped should be placed at the curb by 7:00 a.m. on the collection day.
- Brush is never to be placed curbside prior to the weekend preceding the third Wednesday of each month.
- Branches should be placed parallel to the road between the curb and the sidewalk.
- Do not put branches in the street or on the sidewalk.
- Branches should be placed with the cut ends together.
- Branches should not exceed 12" diameter. All brush must be at least 3' in length. Although 3' is the minimum length, longer branches are much easier to chip.
- Hedge clippings, twigs and small branches less then 3' (but not less then 1') must be bundled with string only (NO WIRE) and must be free of foreign debris, such as, stones, dirt, metal, sweepings and rakings.
- No lumber, construction material, roots, or stumps are permitted.
It is our intention to help everyone understand the process of this much valued chipping service. Should you not understand the above regulations, please contact the Public Works Department at 395-0900 X229.
Thank you for you consideration.
