Leaf Pick-up
Leaf Pick-Up begins approximately the last week of October every year and will end around the last week before Thanksgiving or when the first snow falls, depending on weather conditions.
- Rake leaves to the edge of the road keeping them off the pavement. Leaves become very slippery when wet which may cause a traffic hazzard.
-
Storm drains and catch basins carry storm water runoff. Blocking/clogging those with leaves may cause flooding on your property.
-
Leaf piles should be free of foreign objects such as rocks, branches, grass, bottles, pumpkins, dead plants, etc. Contaminated piles could cause injury and/or equipment failure.
- Do not place leaves around fire hydrants, vehicles, mailboxes, landscaping, boulders, etc., as this will hide the object and potentially damage the machinery.
It takes approximately two days to make a full round of leaf pick-up througout the Township. Multiple rounds are completed during the Fall months and we make every effort to pick up the leaves before the snow falls.
Please do not burn leaves.
