There are two locations being offered starting Thursday:

  • Havana Nursery at 10450 Smith Road- enter off Havana Street
  • Barnum Park North at 3144 W. 6th Ave. - east side parking lot
There are a few things to remember when dropping off branches:

  • No tree stumps
  • No commercial contractors 
  • No professional landscapers
  • No private haulers

Tree branches can also be set out for trash collection but branches must be no longer than 4 inches in diameter, cut into lengths of 4 feet or less, bundled and tied.

For more information about trash pickup of branches visit: www.Denvergov.org/Trash. Branches that down power lines should be left alone. Residents should call Xcel Energy at 1-800-895-1999.
