Chipping of branches is a service provided by the Public Works Department every other week.  The next week to chip branches is the week of August 26-30.  If you have any branches that you cannot wait for the chipping machine they can be picked up with yard  waste every Wednesday if they are tied and bundled, or in cans or boxes, and they must be 4 foot lengths.  The yard waste pick up on Wednesday's occurs only from April 1st through the last Wednesday in November.

If you have or are planning to remove a tree on your property, please note the Public Works Department will not be able to chip large quantities of branches.  You should have large quantities done by a professional service.

Metal goods such as appliances are picked up every other week, opposite the chipping schedule.  The next week for metal pick up is week.  Again the metal items should be placed at the curb for Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday pickup.  Please note that if any concrete is attached to the metal, it will not be picked up.  The Borough does not pick up concrete.

Leaves are picked up in the Borough form November 1st through the month of December.  Please rake the leaves into the street, or on the easement section adjacent to the curbside.  You may also bag your leaves for pick up as well.  The Borough has 2 leaf machines, each working a side of town.  Please be patient for the machines if the machine passes your property and you have not raked, it will not return until it repeats the work schedule.  So please do not contact the Borough to have the machine return to your property.  There are no special trips for leaf pick up! 

Tree Stumps are also picked up by the Public Works, but not on a regular schedule.  as their time schedule permits, as well a the volume of tree stumps may require, they will come and pick up your stumps placed on the easement section of your property.  Please do not place stumps on the street as this causes a hazard to vehicles.
