To assist residents in disposing of brush items, the city of Mission is opening up its landfill area for citizens to dispose of their brush free of charge. 

The landfill area – located at 1400 S. Conway next to the Mission Hike and Bike Trail – will be open for the public to self-dispose of their brush until further notice, a Tuesday news release from the city announced. 

Only Mission residents can participate in this service, the news release said.

The landfill area will be open Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and on Saturday from 8 a.m. to noon. Residents are asked to unload their own brush.

Brush can include trees, limbs, bushes, palm fronds and other foliage damaged by the winter storm.
