(Joplin, MO) – Due to recent storms, residents may have broken and downed tree limbs.
To help with their disposal, the City of Joplin has opened a tree limb drop-off site for residents to bring their limbs and branches damaged from the storm. The site will be open from 8:30 am to 2 pm on Friday and Saturday, May 6 and 7, and Monday through Saturday, May 9 through May 14. It will then reopen for its regular schedule on the third Friday and Saturday, May 20 and May 21.
The drop-off site address is 1702 North Schifferdecker Avenue, which is approximately six-tenths of a mile north of Belle Center Road on the west side of Schifferdecker Avenue. This free drop-off service is for Joplin residents only. Professional contractors will not be allowed to dump.

Limbs must be cut to a maximum of four (4) feet and bundled. Bundles shall be no heavier than 50 pounds. The diameter of each tree limb shall be no larger than four (4) inches.
