To help homeowners get rid of overgrown trees and branches, we offer a free community chipping program. To arrange for curbside pickup, please make an online request.

No willow branches
No construction or building materials
No treated lumber, fence posts or signs
No shrubs, root wads, stumps, dirt, or rocks

No grass clippings, trash, weeds, or bags of leaves

Pile Guidelines:

Stack piles neatly at curbside (no bags), with large ends facing the road
Place piles within 5 feet of the roadway, but not touching the road or in drainage ditches
Maximum pile size is 5’ x 5’ x 5’ per pile with no limit to the number of piles

The chipping service is offered to assist with creating defensible space on private property. Property owners with questions about other measures they can take to help protect their property from the threat of wildfire are encouraged to call our wildland department at 970-477-3476 to speak with a wildfire expert.
