St. Joseph. Ill.- The Village of St. Joseph will pick up brush presently on Village street curbs from June 18 to June 21, weather permitting.
“Brush” includes accumulations of grass or shrubbery cuttings, leaves, tree limbs and other materials accumulated as the result of the care of lawns, shrubbery, vines and trees. All landscape waste that has been chipped, shredded or composted, or otherwise processed shall not be considered as landscape waste.
While the Village sees value in providing brush pick up services to its residents, the Village also plans to review the policy to pick up brush and possibly make revisions, as it looks at man-hours spent and issues that have come up over recent years.
No further pickups are scheduled at this time beyond the pickup for this week.
The Village has committed to make every effort to keep their website up to date as constituents look for information. Village office hours are Monday thru Friday; 7:00-3:30, closed between 12:30-1:00 for lunch and the phone number is 217-469-7371.
