The City of McAllen offers its residents brush collection. The Brush collection is every four to six weeks. The area being cleaned is reported weekly in the newspaper, "The Monitor." Residents are asked to place brush/tree limbs in the alley, if residents do not have an alley they are asked to place it by the curbside.  | Beautify Your Garden
