Branch & Leaf Pickup
The Public Works Department picks up branches after severe weather strikes (weather permitting) as needed. They ask that the branches be no larger than one man can handle and the butt of the branch be facing the road. This does not include the pickup of a tree professionally cut down.

Yard waste is not included in this pickup. The Public Works Department also does Autumn Leaf Cleanup from late October through late November (Weather Permitting). Place leaves in piles in the grass areas along the roadside. Do not rake leaves into the streets as this can cause storm sewers to become clogged. This service is performed with a leaf vacuum machine.

In order to prevent damage to this machine, only leaves can be picked up during Autumn Leaf Cleanup. Please make sure there are no rocks, branches or other solid materials in the leaf piles. Also, please do not park in front of leaf piles.
