(From the City of Joplin)
Recent wind storms blew down many tree limbs and branches in Joplin. To help residents dispose of these, the City is opening City’s tree limb drop-off site will be open from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. tomorrow, Friday, July 15, along with its normal third Saturday, which offers this service from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. this week on July 16. The drop-off site is located six tenths of a mile north of Belle Center Road on the west side of Schifferdecker Avenue. This free drop off service is for Joplin residents only. Professional contractors will not be allowed to dump.
Joplin residents should also note that the City’s residential trash service through Republic Services allows yard waste removal on their regular trash pick-up day. Limbs must be cut to a maximum of four (4) feet and bundled. Bundles shall be no heavier than 50 pounds. The diameter of each tree limb shall be no larger than four (4) inches.
Joplin residents and landlords on the City’s residential trash service may also bring tree limbs, branches, and brush, for a fee, to the Republic Services Transfer Station on Old Route 66, in Galena, Kansas. For details, call Republic Services at 620-783-5841.
