The Township is divided into seven leaf collection routes, each with a crew of full-time and seasonal employees assigned to it. Crews remain in their area throughout the season, making repeated passes through neighborhoods with industrial-size vacuums.
Each rotation requires about seven work days to complete, depending upon weather and equipment. The process offers several opportunities for residents to rake their leaves to the curb for removal.
Mother Nature decides when leaves fall, and some years the leaves drop all at once. Although we make every effort to collect leaves as quickly as possible, it may take longer for crews to complete a route during the period of heaviest leaf fall.
Adverse weather such as heavy rain, cold weather or snow can disrupt our schedule as well. Cold weather can cause leaves to freeze in piles that must be broken up manually. Snowfall requires the break down of our leaf machines for snow equipment, a time consuming task.
We're asking residents to take these steps to help keep leaf collection on schedule, hold costs down, and reduce storm water pollution:
