3/27/2020 - STORM SPECIAL BRUSH COLLECTION UPDATE AS OF JULY 13th
As of July 13, 2020 Brush Collection in Zone 4 is complete. Township Crews are now collecting storm brush in Zone 5 and Zone 1. Crews will continue to collect storm brush until all material is collected. Once Zone 5 and Zone 1 are complete, crews will move into Zone 2 and Zone 3.
The second annual/regularly scheduled collection will begin in August and follow the schedule below:
Zone 1: Week of August 10th
Zone 3: Week of August 24th
Zone 5: Week of September 7th
Zone 4: Week of September 21st
Zone 2: Week of October 5th
All brush must be piled neatly at the edge of the property and cannot be placed in any roadway or on any sidewalk. Brush should not exceed 4-6 feet in length, and should not be any larger than 6 inches in diameter. As a reminder for those residents who utilize a private contractor, the contractor is responsible for the removal of the brush from the property. Foreign material including fence posts, lumber, or landscape timbers will not be collected. Residents who do not wish to wait for a roadside collection may bring their material to the DPW yard during regular business hours. Proof of residency is required prior to entering the yard. Contractors are not permitted to dispose of any material at the yard.
