Joplin’s monthly tree branch donation program is open this Friday, June 16 and Saturday, June 17 for residents to bring their twigs and branches. The location is open from 8:30 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. and is located at 1702 North Schifferdecker Avenue, approximately 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 are not allowed to dump garbage.
This service is offered every third Saturday and on the Friday before the third Saturday. Next month it will be offered on Friday 14th July and Saturday 15th July.
Joplin residents should also note that the city’s garbage collection service, through Republic Services, allows for the disposal of yard waste on their regular garbage pickup day. Limbs must be trimmed and bundled to a maximum length of four (4) feet. Bundles must not exceed 50 pounds. Each branch must not exceed four (4) inches in diameter.
Please contact the recycling coordinator at 417-624-0820 ext. 1501 for questions about on-site delivery. For curbside pickup questions, contact Republic Services at 800-431-1507.
