The DPW will begin leaf collection the week of October 21. To better serve you, the following is needed to facilitate the pick up of leaves . . . .

​

• NO BAGS OF ANY KIND will be collected.​

• Pile leaves and grass neatly at the curb NOT to obstruct traffic in the street.​

• Do NOT mix debris with leaves such as rocks, wood, branches, etc.​

• Leaves should NOT be piled around fire hydrants, light poles, signs, trees, etc.​

• Do NOT place leaves within ten (10) feet of either side of a storm drain.​

• Vehicles parked in the street prevent us from working along the curb and collecting your leaves.​

• The DPW is NOT responsible for any damage to basketball backboards that are located at the curb.​

• Leaves will be continually picked up until December 7th. The leaves MUST be at the curb by December 5th.​

• Any leaves left at the curb beyond December 7th are in violation of Borough Ordinance #830-2006 and you will be subject to a fine.

​

During leaf season, NO BRANCHES will be collected. If there is a need for branches to be stacked, they must be kept on your property as placing them in the street is in violation of Borough Ordinance #830-2006. Chipping will resume mid-December, weather permitting.

​

Should you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to call the D.P.W. Secretary at 201/767-3330, extension 219.

Stormwater Regulations are imposed by the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection on all municipalities.
