Lewisburg Borough residents are encouraged to participate in our annual fall brush and tree trimmings pick-up scheduled for the week of October 13 – 17, 2025.  The Borough Public Works Department will be following the daily street maintenance schedule in its efforts to collect brush and tree trimmings. The brush and tree trimmings should be placed prior to 6:30 am.  These materials will only be collected on the day the street is posted for No Parking from 7 AM to Noon, and any subsequent debris left unattended will be considered litter.  Tree limbs and tree debris should be no larger than 2 inches in diameter and 4 feet in length.  It should be placed between the curb and the sidewalk where appropriate.  All other tree trimmings can be taken by Borough residents and Borough property owners (who are working on their Borough property) to the brush pile in the Wolfe Field Athletic Complex along St. Anthony Street during normal hours of operation.
