ATTENTION: FINAL Round of Leaf Collection Begins 12/9
On Monday, December 9, 2024, the Department of Public Works (DPW) started its FINAL round of leaf collection. Residents are advised to place their leaves curbside.
Rules and Guidelines:
- Property owners shall have all leaves for collection located and placed in a windrow fashion at the edge of their property, adjacent to the roadway but not within the roadway. Any leaves plowed off the roadway during a snow event will not be the responsibility of the DPW to clean up.
- No leaves shall be placed closer than ten (10’) feet from any storm sewer inlet.
- Leaves shall not be placed in bags or near silt fence.
- No branches, rocks, debris, or other foreign material shall be placed or located within the leaf pile for collection. Crews are instructed not to collect leaves if any debris is present.
- The Township will collect the leaves placed in the appropriate location. While efforts will be made to clean up all leaves placed at the curb, if there are any remaining leaves after collection, the property owner shall rake such remaining leaves back into the appropriate location at the edge of the property so that they can be collected if there is a subsequent round of collection.
- Leaves may be brought to the DPW Recycling Facility with the recycling permit.
Residents are responsible for communicating with your contractors the above rules and guidelines.
