Leaves should be raked into the gutter areas for the scheduled pickup week to speed up collection. In an effort to prevent damage to equipment, tree branches, shrubbery and trash will not be picked up with the leaf machine.
Residents are asked to use off-street parking on the day of their collection.
Pursuant to Pennsylvania Recycling Law, leaves will no longer be picked up with regular garbage due to the fact that they are not permitted at the landfill.
Leaf composting is permitted and residents are encouraged to do backyard composting.
