Leaf Collection

Leaf collection from mid-October through early December. You may also bring your leaves to the Yard Waste Site during hours of operation. Please call the office at 610-799-3411 if you have any questions!

To provide efficient service throughout the Township, leaves will be collected by designated districts according to a scheduled collection rotation. Residents are encouraged to review the collection schedule to determine when crews will be working in their neighborhood. To view the Leaf Collection District Map and find the scheduled collection dates for your area CLICK THIS LINK. You also may bring your leaves to the Yard Waste Site!

If leaves are not in place when the crew goes by, they will be picked up on the next rotation. The crews will not make special trips back to an area until that section is completed and the route is started over. This schedule is subject to inclement weather, mechanical breakdown, and Township emergencies requiring the Public Works personnel and equipment. Your area could be skipped at any time should these situations occur.

• If your car is parked on the street: during leaf pick up season, it could get pieces broken up leaves blown on them. The machine is like a vacuum and needs to emit air out of the back. Cars parked on the street are kept there at their own risk.
  
  
• To facilitate the picking up of the leaves please keep all vehicles away from the area where the leaves are piled. The crews will not rake piles of leaves out from between parked cars or from under them.
  
  
• Do not place pieces of wood, steel, rocks or concrete on the leaves to hold them down. These objects will cause extensive damage to the leaf pickup units and put them out of service at a great expense of time and money to the Township and its citizens.
  
  
• For proper pick up it is necessary to dump the contents of plastic bags or other containers into the gutter area. Crews will not empty bags or other containers; this is the responsibility of the resident. Branches, shrubbery, garbage, and building materials will not be picked up. These items will be left behind and it will be the responsibility of the resident for removal and disposal.
  
  
• Do not have any twigs, branches, garbage, stumps, logs, grass, garden residue, or ground roots in your pile. Your pile will not be picked up if it contains anything other than leaves.
