FALL YARD MATERIALS PICK-UP
| |
|
This year's Fall Yard Materials Pick Up is CURRENTLY scheduled to begin Monday, October 14, 2013. Have leaves, un-bagged thatch, grass, clippings, pine needles and brush less than six (6) inches in diameter, placed on the shoulder the day before your normal refuse pickup. If you have curb and gutter please place yard waste in the gutter.
Piles are to be placed so as to be clear of power poles, trees and mailboxes for ease of pickup. Brush is to be kept SEPARATE from yard material and placed at roadside with stump ends of limbs placed in same direction, parallel to road. If yard material cannot be reached by the Village's machines it will then be the responsibility of the resident to dispose of the yard material.
After the roadside collection, leaves and all pre-mentioned items can be brought to the Village's yard waste site (free of charge) located at 8200 Ryan Street (1/4 mile south of Weston Avenue on the west side). When bringing items to the yard material site, please remove leaves from bags and dispose of the bags in the provided container.
