Any bagged leaves must be brought to the Recycling Center during recycling hours. Please do not mix branches or tree limbs in with the leaves.

Raked, loose leaves will be picked up at the curb line in October and November only, prior to permanent snowfall.

Village Public Works Department annual Fall brush pick-up begins the second Monday in October. Although this process will take approximately 2 – 3 weeks to complete, we will not be extending the pick-up, or picking up brush that is put out after the first Monday of the pickup schedule.

Limbs shall be no more than 6 foot in length and placed at the curb with the trunk facing the street for easier handling. Please tie branches 2″ or smaller into bundles no larger than 2 feet in diameter using twine or light rope.

Brush in containers WILL NOT be picked up as too often there is yardwaste in the
bottom of the container. Yardwaste and leaves are not included in the pick-up.
