City of Greencastle helping in storm clean-up

The City of Greencastle is offering help as debris removal and clean-up continues from recent storm damage.

Greencastle, like many in the area, has trees, limbs, branches and other storm debris.  Residents are being asked to place small quantities of twigs, small limbs and leaves in their trash toters.  They should not place debris in recycling toters.

Starting today, Greencastle crews will begin picking up limbs that have been placed adjacent to the street.  Residents are asked to not place limbs or other vegetation debris in the street. After the pick-up of limbs there may be some residual leaves and twigs remaining. Residents are asked to rake those items and place them in the trash toter.

If a resident hires a tree service to remove a tree of large limbs, that contractor should remove all of the limbs, cuttings and other debris.  It should not be left for the city to remove.

The city pick-up is scheduled to run through July 21.

The city will not be picking up roofing materials, building materials, lawn furniture or other storm damaged items. And city pick-up could be delayed by weather, equipment breakdown or other work by city departments.
