City trucks provide brush pick up to Gallatin trash customers. Currently, brush pickup circles through the city every four to six weeks, depending on the amount of brush being cut and the waiting time to drop loads at the Sumner County Resource Authority.
The City provides brush pick-up for Environmental Service customers with trash collection service. This service includes roadside pick-up of one 20 cubic yard trailer per route cycle. A fee in the amount of $75 shall be charged for any amount of brush in excess of this. The City will provide brush collection for Non-Environmental Service customers or special collections outside of the normal brush route for a fee of $150 per 20 cubic yard trailer load. Non- Environmental Service customers wishing to have brush collection must contact Environmental Services at 615-452-2147.
