Spring Leaf Collection - April

During the Spring Leaf Collection, you will receive one pickup of your leaves.  It is important that you check your schedule week of pickup.  Leaves must be out near the curb prior to your week, so that ensures you do not miss your pickup.  We do not know exactly what day they will be passing your house during your pickup.  If you miss your pickup day during that week the trucks will not be coming back through.

 

Fall Leaf Collection - November & December

During the Fall Leaf Collection, it is important that you check your schedule week of pickup.  Leaves must be out near the curb prior to your week, so that ensures you do not miss your pickup.  We do not know exactly what day they will be passing your house during your pickup.  If you miss your pickup day during that week the trucks will not be coming back through until your next scheduled week.

 

Residents have the choice to rake your leaves to the edge of your property or bag your leaves in biodegradable paper bags.  This collection is for leaves only, no grass clippings, branches or other debris.

Residents may also bring leaves and grass clippings to our Compost Facility located on Galloway Road, Wednesday through Saturday, 8:00 am to 2:00 pm.

 

ATTENTION RESIDENTS: Galloway Township Ordinance mandates that those who are bagging leaves must place them in biodegradable paper bags for pickup at the curb.

  

COLLECTION IS FOR LEAVES ONLY.  NO GRASS CLIPPINGS, BRANCHES AND OTHER DEBRIS ALLOWED.  

 

If you have any questions concerning your pickup dates, please call the Public Works Department at 609-652-3700 Ext. 244.
