City schedules branch pick-up

SANDPOINT — This year’s annual branch pick-up is planned for April 24-26, Sandpoint city officials said.

All branches must be placed outside the curb of residences in Sandpoint city limits by April 24. 

Pickup guidelines:

• Stack all brush and branches lengthwise in the street along the curb — do not place branches on lawns. No leaves or bagged leaves.

• The maximum branch diameter is four inches and it can be no longer than six feet. Larger branches or stumps will not be picked up.

• Do not mix brush piles with other items such as leaves, grass clippings, building materials, timbers, or commercial contractor generated tree waste. Crews will not remove mixed piles.
