Brush Pick-Up Service & Dial-A-Truck

- All leaves, grass clippings, and twigs must be in paper bags.
- All limbs must be cut to less than five feet, tied and bundled so they can be easily handled by one person.

Large amounts of brush will require hiring of the DIAL-A-TRUCK service, available to Village residents for $25.00 per day. To reserve the DIAL-A-TRUCK, please call the DPW at 387-5618.


Leaf Pick-Up

The Village DPW conducts seasonal leaf pick-up in the autumn using a vacuum truck. Leaf pick-up usually runs from mid-October through Thanksgiving but is subject to weather and precipitation.

Leaves must be raked in rows between the sidewalk and curb. Leaf piles shall not extend into the street. Branches and twigs must be tied and bundled. After Thanksgiving, leaves must be bagged.



** Some non-village residents who live in close proximity to existing water and sewer services are permitted to hook into these services at a higher rate.
