Brush Pit
The brush pit is located at the west edge of the city east of the river on 146th Ave. N. and 1/4 mile south by the wastewater treatment plant. Only tree brush is allowed at the brush pit. No leaves, paper products or construction items are allowed. This is only for Mulvane citizens residing in the city limits and paying Mulvane city taxes.
The brush pit is the property of the City of Mulvane and only city residents are allowed to dump brush in the brush pit. This constitutes citizens living in the City of Mulvane and paying city taxes. This does not include Mulvane residents living outside of the city limits and paying Mulvane School taxes.
During the months of September through May the Public Works department will pick up limbs at the curb. If a storm occurs the Public Works department will pick up limbs for about 2 weeks after the storm and thereafter each citizen will need to call the city office to have tree limbs picked up at (316) 777-1143.
During May to September the Public Works department maintains and slurries the city streets and does not pick up tree limbs unless a storm occurs.
If a citizen is able to haul their tree limbs out to the brush pit they must come to the city office or call (316) 777-1143 and sign in to use the Brush Pit prior to going out to the brush pit and the city staff will call a Public Works Department Personnel to unlock the gate. The city office will record the citizen's name, address of where the tree were trimmed at and phone number. The brush pit is open weekly from 8:00 a.m. - 3:00 p.m. after signing the book.
The brush pit is open on Saturdays from 9:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m. without a brush pit permit for the citizens convenience.
