Brushwood collection

In the spring in May (weeks 19–21), we organise a brushwood collection campaign for small properties with 1–9 apartments. The cost of the service is 80 euros per collection point.

The ordering period for the spring 2025 brushwood collection has ended.

The collection is the right place for waste created during the pruning and cutting of trees and shrubs, such as

  • brushwood;
  • hawthorn;
  • rose brushes;
  • coniferous litter; and
  • branches and tree trunks up to six metres in length and approximately 20 cm in thickness.

Tree leaves and other raking waste are not included in the collection.

What to do

  1. 1

    Collect the brushwood in one pile in a visible place on the border of the lot, no more than five metres from the road. 

  2. 2

    Make sure that the pile of brushwood can stay in the same place throughout the two-week collection period without disturbing traffic. 

  3. 3

    Check that there are no obstacles around or above the pile, such as tree branches or power lines. There must be at least six metres of free space above. 

  4. 4

    Do not package or tie the brushwood.  

  5. 5

    One collection point can have up to 30 cubic metres of brushwood, amounting to a large truck load. 

Properties can divide costs by collecting a shared pile of brushwood. We will charge the pick-up price on the invoice of the property that ordered the service.
