Free tree, brush pickup in Cloquet

Starting Tuesday, May 30, local contractor 3D Construction will begin driving every street within Cloquet city limits to pick up brush, tree branches and tree trunks (in pieces no longer than 5 feet) from the roadside as part of the cleanup efforts following damaging winter storms. 3D Construction will not collect piles of leaves, pine needles or grass clippings; however, those can be brought to the city’s brush and leaf disposal site behind the public works garage, 410 Armory Road, from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Thursday and 7:30-11 a.m. Fridays. The city will also allow brush disposal at the snow storage site at the corner of Carlton Avenue and Highway 45 through June 30.
