The Brecksville Service Department provides a limited animal
carcass removal service. Due to the expense of dispatching crews for this type
of activity, only large animal remains in the right-of-way that may cause a
traffic hazard are picked up on a 24/7 basis. Large (deer-sized) animal
carcasses will be removed from private property during our normal operating
hours of 7:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Monday - Friday. On private property in wooded
areas decayed carcasses will be limed only by the Service Department.
The Service Department requests that residents handle the removal of small
animal remains by placing them in plastic bags and disposing of them with
household trash.
