Green Waste Street Pickup
Description:
Green Waste/Leaf pickup is on the 3rd Monday of each month. Once they have gone through your street any new piles will be picked up with the next round.
All green waste/leaf material must be placed next to the street on your property by the 3rd Monday morning of each month. It is illegal to place items in a right-of-way or public park. Please do not pile leaves/green waste near any utility infrastructure this makes it very difficult to get at with equipment.
Pickup is limited to items that either fall off a tree or grow from the ground; we are not allowed to take construction debris, tires or other non-organic items or any animal waste. Contact your garbage hauler for these items.
Yard waste/leaves can be taken directly to the DPW garage
Limbs/branches should be cut no longer than six feet.
Leaves/clippings can be placed in a brown yard-waste paper bag(s); clear or black garbage bags are considered as garbage and not yard waste. You may also cover with a tarp that the crew will leave in your yard.
If you pay someone to cut down or trim a tree, the contractor must remove the debris. Tree contractors can do this more efficiently and more timely than the village crew.
The village crew will not remove any branches/leaves or other waste from vacant land. If you are clearing land, you are responsible for hauling away the debris.
