Yard Waste Pickup
Yard waste pick will be picked up for the last time this year on Monday, December 18th. It will resume on Monday, January 8th.
Leaf/Yard Waste Pickup Update (12/4/23)
Today is the last day that leaves will be picked up that are in windrows. From now on, please containerize your leaves and brush for yard waste pick up on Mondays. Note: If brush is not containerized, it might not get picked up if snow is on the ground.
Basketball Hoops
Please remove any overhanging basketball hoops from the road when they are not being used. According to section 122-6 of Village law, 'A person must not interfere with any pavement, sidewalks, crosswalks, sewer or street, or construct or maintain anything in, upon, above or under a sidewalk or street, or make any openings therein...' The hoops interfere with trash pickup as well as snowplows and emergency vehicles.
Bulk Waste Pick Up Change
Starting in October, the Village is changing picking up bulk waste from weekly to every 1st and 3rd Friday of the month. Therefore, the schedule for the following few weeks is as follows:
September 29th
October 6th
October 20th
November 3rd
November 17th
December 1st
December 15th
Seasonal Leaf Pickup
The leaf truck will start sucking up leaves that are placed in windrows by the curb (NOT in the road) when more leaf accumulation takes place. After the first frost, the leaves will fall and that'll be when the DPW will come around.
Curbside Brush Pick Up
PREPARATION: Place small plants, leaves, weeds, and grass clippings in regular metal or plastic containers; do NOT use plastic bags; containers must be left open. Leaves and grass clippings may also be placed in paper leaf bags.
· Brush, shrubs and tree branches shall either be containerized or piled as neatly as possible in lengths not to exceed 48” and 12” in diameter and weighing no more than 40 lbs.
· Yard waste must be kept at least six (6) feet from other waste categories. If you leave piles of brush and branches in front of your property for DPW pick-up, make certain that these are back far enough from the curb or road that they do not interfere with traffic or parking.
***Village Brush pick up takes place on Mondays, and sometimes throughout the week.
***BRUSH PREPARATION AT THE CURB: Please make sure to put your yard waste in containers or in paper leaf bags.
FRIENDLY RECYCLING REMINDER:
As you may know, the Village/County requires that you separate your recyclables into 2 categories: those for paper/cardboard, and those for glass, aluminum, and plastic. Please make sure to take the little extra time to separate these articles, as it takes the DPW a considerable amount of extra time sorting them if there are not sorted appropriately. Thank you!
