Fall Leaf Clean-Up Program

It won't be long before the leaves begin to fall. Residents of Somerville are reminded that by ordinance, leaves must be recycled, not thrown in trash. Leaves can be raked into the curb where they will be vacuumed up by the Borough Public Works Department. Please be very careful not to block storm drains to prevent flooding in case of heavy rain.

The collection of leaves will start on October 11, 2010. The last day leaves will be collected by our machines will be December 16, 2010. Prior to October 11 and after December 16, leaves will have to be placed in clear plastic bags for collection.

If you have any questions please feel free to contact the public works department at 908- 725-2300-ex- 1961.   You can also e-mail our Public Works Manager at phendershot@somervillenj.org
