The City of Naperville's 2023 curbside bulk brush collection program begins the week of May 8. This program is an opportunity to dispose of large quantities of unbundled branches and tree trimmings at no cost.

The City is divided into five collection districts, which correspond with the weekly curbside garbage collection schedule. The collection cycle in each district takes one full week to complete. Residents can view the City's interactive brush collection map at www.naperville.il.us/brushcollection to track collection progress in their neighborhood. Here is the brush collection schedule for May and June 2023:

Residents must place brush on the parkway the Sunday before collection begins in each area, with one exception. For residents with garbage collection on Thursday, brush should be placed on the curb on Monday, May 29, with collection beginning Tuesday, May 30, due to the Memorial Day holiday. Brush collection crews will make only one pass through each neighborhood. Brush put out after the crews have passed will not be collected.
