It’s that time of year again… Leaf Collection starts November 3rd and runs through the end of December!
Here are the details:
➡️ Crews will begin in the north end of town and work their way south each day. There’s no set schedule, but they’ll continue until everything is collected (weather permitting).
➡️ Rake leaves only -- keep branches, twigs, and bags out of the piles so the trucks can scoop them up easily.
➡️ Place leaf piles at least 10 feet from storm drains to keep everything flowing smoothly.
➡️ Leave a little space between the piles and any parked cars so crews can reach them.
Want to drop them off yourself? You can bring bagged leaves to the Public Works Recycling Center at 266 Crosswicks Road -- just be sure to empty the bags there.
And one last thing: please no leaf burning in the Township.
Thanks for doing your part to keep Bordentown looking great this fall!
Everyone deserves a second chance.
