Brush Clippings

GFL provides the City of Center Line with excellent sold waste, yard waste, and recycling services. GFL also provides brush chipping services.

Brush chipping is done on Wednesdays and the guidelines are listed below:

Large brush is defined as pieces of brush longer than 4 feet in length but not exceeding 10 feet, no greater than 4 inches in diameter and generated by the homeowner not a commercial company, single family homes only. It does not include branches or limbs greater than 4 inches in diameter, stumps or dirt balls. Please place large brush at the curb on Wednesday with all butt ends facing in the same direction, toward the street.
Please try not to allow brush to extend over the sidewalk or the curb.
For the safety of workers, all branches with thorns must be placed in yard waste paper bags or containers or tied and bundled for collection under the normal yard waste program.
Small brush will be picked up on your normal garbage day. Place small brush in yard waste bags or garbage cans marked “Compost” or bundled for collection. Free compost stickers are available at city hall.
