The first defense against a wildfire is to create and maintain a defensible space around your home. Removing excess brush and vegetation debris around your home and structures can slow the rate and intensity of an advancing wildfire. To promote these efforts, the City of Prescott is offering a free brush and vegetation debris drop off event for its residential trash customers.
This event will run every Saturday in April, from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. at the City of Prescott Transfer Station located at 2800 Sundog Ranch Rd. Proof of City of Prescott residency in the form of a driver’s license or utility bill is required.
Event Dates:
Saturday, April 1st
Saturday, April 8th
Saturday, April 15th
Saturday, April 22nd
Saturday, April 29th
Please do not bag the brush/vegetation debris, do not place trash in the brush/vegetation debris and please remember to cover and contain all loads when transporting them.
Commercial haulers will be required to pay the standard rate for disposing of brush and vegetation debris.
