As the fall season paints our streets with a tapestry of colorful leaves, the Borough is pleased to announce our curbside leaf collection schedule. Starting on October 27, New Freedom Borough Public Works will collect leaves placed curbside every Monday (weather pending) throughout November, and the first Monday of December.
To ensure a seamless collection process and maintain our community’s aesthetics, please follow these guidelines:
š Create a leaf pile or row on the street, positioning it approximately one foot away from any existing curbing. This allows for both the safe passage of vehicles and proper stormwater drainage.
š Place your leaf waste along the curbing by 7:00 AM on the designated Mondays. Leaf collection is scheduled once per week on every street. Please be aware that during peak leaf fall, there may be slight delays in the collection process. We appreciate your patience during busier times.
š Avoid mixing or combining leaf waste with other debris, as this will prevent collection. Additionally, please refrain from placing tarps over leaf piles, as they hinder collection.
Please remember that we cannot collect leaf waste in plastic bags or any containers. Instead, kindly place the leaves loosely along the curbing.
For updates and any changes to the leaf waste collection schedule, keep an eye on our website and Savvy Citizen.
Thank you for your cooperation, and let’s keep our streets as beautiful as the season itself.
