Tree Debris Removal

Rep. Jeannie McDaniel, who attended Saturday’s MMNA coffee and social meeting, handed out an information sheet regarding the removal of limbs from last week’s storm that damaged the northern portion of our neighborhood. We have included the information she provided at the meeting below:

To report tree limbs that need picked up OR other city services, please contact the Mayor’s Action Center (MAC) at 596-2100. You can also make a report online at: www.cityoftulsa.org/Reporting/Other.asp

City of Tulsa/Public Works employees will be picking up limbs and tree debris that is placed at or near the curb in front of your property. By calling the MAC, you will be placed on the pick-up list. Crews are working daily throughout the area hit by the storm and are monitoring curbside accumulations of tree debris as they carry out their daily work. This removal of tree debris service will be provided through Friday, June 16. If you have special needs or other questions, please call this action line. With the damage that has taken place in our part of the Tulsa community, city officials clearly understand that there may be unique circumstatnces that arise over the next week that slow the work at hand. Many residents are awaiting inspectors, insurance and utility representatives, etc.

Tree debris can also be taken to the City of Tulsa’s Greenwaste site, located at 10401 E. 56th Street North (one-half mile west of Highway 169 on 56th Street North), which is open seven days a week, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. (excluding City holidays). www.cityoftulsa.org/Environment/Greenwaste

Trash haulers can remove tree debris under the following guidelines on regular trash day: Brush tied in 4-feet-by-2-feet bundles, and yard waste that is in suitable cans or boxed or bagged in sturdy containers. Twice-a-week pickup of unlimited amounts of household garbage, plus up to six bags or bundles of yard trimmings per pickup, placed within four feet of curb or traveled portion of road.
