Leaf Pickup
This service begins in October and continues until Thanksgiving. Village DPW staff vacuum the leaves that are raked to the front of each resident's property. We offer these tips to help for timely removal:
- Rake in a row parallel with the road. Large piles are more time consuming to vacuum then a lower row, especially when wet.
- Please keep the leaves in the grassy area in front of your home and don′t rake into the road. When they are in the road they impede the storm water drainage patterns and clog catch basins.
- Brush pickup ended in September, please don′t mix brush with the leaves. (See Brush Pickup page.)
- Garden and yard waste clogs the vacuum and is not picked up. We have a compost pile available for you to bring grass clippings, flowers, etc., at the DPW facilities.
Leaf pickup is not done in the spring. If you still have leaves to dispose of in the fall/spring you may bring to the compost pile at the DPW Facilities.
