Brush Pile Reminder

8/25/2026

Goodhue residents are fortunate to have a brush pile located within city limits.  Recently, however, items that are not allowed have been left there. Here is one example.  Only yard waste may be placed in the brush pile.  This includes leaves, twigs, and branches.  No other wood items are permitted.  Even if an item is made of wood—such as furniture or materials from home building or remodeling—it cannot be disposed of in the brush pile.  Dumping non-organic items can result in fines for the city.  Violations like these could lead to the removal of the brush pile completely.  Please help keep the brush pile available for everyone by following these guidelines.
