Leaf Collection
The 2011 Fall Leaf Collection Program will begin on October 17.
The final collection round will begin December 1. This means
that once an area is collected after December 1, any leaves
placed at the curb will not be picked up. Please visit our brush
collection page for information on scheduling fall pickups.
As in the past, the east and west sections of the Township have been divided
into zones. This enables the Public Service Department to follow a set
collection route and better communicate with the residents as to where leaf
collection is currently being conducted, where it has been done and where it
will be done next. The Township website will be updated daily with this
information.

Residents are reminded that leaves
must be placed within four (4) feet of the curb, but not in
the street. Leaves left in the street can create a safety hazard,
especially if it rains or snows. Ordinance #1226 provides for
fines for those who unlawfully and substantially interfere with,
obstruct or render dangerous for use or passage any street,
road, sidewalk, river or public way or place.
Remember that no other debris may be mixed in with the leaves. Also, placement of obstacles in front of the leaves may hinder collection. A request is made that cars, trash cans or other objects not block access to the leaves. Door hangers will be left at residents home if there is a problem with the collection of leaves. This door hanger will give the reason for the non-collection and give a phone number to call for further collection information.
Please call the Township at 412-784-1784, ext. 203 with any questions or comments regarding the leaf collection program.
