Burning & DumpĀ Permits

Burn Permits
If you wish to burn, a permit is REQUIRED. The Fire Department issues burning permits for the city. You may request a burning permit in person or on our website's main page under the "How do I?" section. For burning regulations and more information, click here: Burn Permit Info
Dump Permits
Each Burton household is entitled to one (1) FREE dump permit per month. One dump permit is good for the equivalent of a standard-size bed of a pick-up truckload (under 1,000 lbs). Permits must be used in the month issued. Proper ID or proof of residency is required. Examples of acceptable materials: Concrete, yard waste, household refuse, shingles and other building materials. You may request a dump permit in person at City Hall. We use Brent Run Landfill located at 8335 Vienna Rd. Montrose, MI 48457. You may call the landfill at 810-639-3077 if you have any questions or view the website at: http://www.brentrunlandfill.com/default.aspx
