Town of Munster Indiana

The Public Works has the chipper out every week day picking up branches.  The chipper starts in the northwest section of town and continues throughout the week picking up branches.  The chipper will continue the route each day starting where they left off the previous day.  Due to storms, it may take longer than a week for the chipper to make it thru the town.  Please be patient, we will get to your branches. DO NOT CALL IN FOR BRANCH PICK UP.  The chipper goes up and down every street in town, they will get to you.

If you have pulled out bushes with a root ball, please call the Public Works Office at 836-6971 for a pick up.  Root balls must be removed from the bush and put in a separate pile. The chipper cannot pick up root balls.

Twigs and yard waste such as grass and plants should be put into your garbage cans or bagged.  LEAVES ARE NOT CONSIDERED YARD WASTE.  You cannot put leaves in the garbage, Waste Management will not pick them up.  Small piles of branches should either be put in the garbage can or bundled/tied and set next to the garbage can, these will be picked up by Waste Management.  If you have any questions, you can contact the Public Works Department at 836-6971.
