Toms River Spring Brush Collection Starts April 2

Bring out your branches.

The spring collection of shrub and tree trimmings will begin April 2, but there's some rules to remember if you decide to haul some brush to the curb.

• Branches must be less than 4" in diameter.
• All material must be in lengths of 4 feet or less
• The material must weigh less than 50 lbs.
• Do not bag the items.

Collection could be as early as 6:30 a.m., so put material out before then on collection day. Collections will occur for two consecutive weeks, through April 13.

If you have brush and trimmings other times of the year, you can still bring material to be chipped at the (1672 Church Road). There, you can also pick up free mulch and wood chips.

The service is open to residents of Toms River.
