Description
The Annual Leaf Collection Program is slated to begin TUESDAY, October 15, 2024 and continue per the attached schedule through the beginning of December depending on weather.
Leaf collection throughout the Township will be done through Districts (map attached) and designated pickup days. If Public Works can complete a District early, they will move to the next district the same day. However, they will go back and start at the scheduled District the following day. Leaves should be placed curbside by 7 am in accordance with your pickup district and scheduled pickup date.
Regulations
All Township residents are required to abide by the following regulations governing leaf collections:
1. Residents are asked to either pile or windrow their leaves along the curb line or edge of the street. It is important that only leaves are put out for collection as we use machines that run on vacuum.
2. Make sure there are no branches, rocks, or debris in the piles. If we see this type of foreign material in the pile, we will not pick it up.
3. Objects, such as branches or shrubbery, will cause the suction tube to clog and in some cases may reach the machine's impeller and may result in expensive repairs and down time.
4. If there is an inlet/catch basin in front of your house please try to keep the top of the grate free of debris.
Please go to the township website at forkstownship.org to find more detailed maps of each district.
