Tip of the Week | Keep all twigs and branches out of leaf piles. Piles mixed with branches will not be collected as they can damage the leaf collection equipment. If you have yard waste, keep it in a separate pile, or bring it to the Village's yard waste drop off site. |

Leaves in the 21 Century |

Loose leaf collection will be continuing next week. As many of you may have seen, the Village is utilizing a new automated collection vehicle. This truck is operated by one person, allowing for easier pickup than the trailer mounted system.
Next week, the following sections will be collec ted:
- Section 5 - Monday, October 24
- Section 6 - Tuesday, October 25
- Section 7 - Wednesday, October 26
- Section 8 - Thursday, October 27
Remember, you must keep your loose leaves separate from all twigs and branches, or the pile will NOT be collected. Leaves mixed with yard waste will clog or damage the equipment.

Garbage or Recycling? |
|
A quick reminder regarding all garbage and recycling pickups. Crews can only accept containers that are placed out for collection on their scheduled day. For example, crews will not take a recycling container that is set out on a garbage collection day. To do so would defeat the purpose of a separate collection, causing recycling to be mixed with garbage.

Remember, the brown/tan container is for garbage only, and the dark green container is for recycling only. Each container has the acceptable material written on the side (garbage or recycling). If you have any questions, please contact Village Hall at 351-8811. |
