(SAINT JOHN) With the majority of emergency and high priority tree removal tasks near completion, the City is preparing for the clean-up phase, which includes a program to assist residents with the clean-up of storm-damaged tree material.

This pick up is only for leaves, branches and trunks of trees damaged by post-tropical storm Arthur.

Residents are asked to have any debris, such as leaves, branches, or trunks, from their fallen and damaged trees to the curb by end of day Monday, July 14 for a one time pick up service by city crews the following morning.

The curb side clean-up is expected to take approximately four days to complete, and will begin simultaneously in all areas across the City.

To report hazards, such as fallen or hanging branches in public spaces, please contact Municipal Operations 658-4455.
