Who is responsible to remove the tumbleweeds that blow into my property or that pile up against my fence?
Tumbleweed removal is the responsibility of the property owner where the tumbleweeds are currently located. If tumbleweeds have piled up on a property that you don’t own, you can submit a complaint and Code Enforcement will inspect the property and notify the owner to remove the weeds. If the tumbleweeds are on your property, you are required to dispose of them. Basin Disposal will pick up tumbleweeds with your regular garbage collection. You can also call the Fire Department Burn Line (509) 544-3098 to determine if you are permitted to burn the weeds.
