Residents in Millcreek Township can soon begin preparing for the annual fall curbside leaf collection program, which is set to begin the week of October 19 and continue through early December.
Township officials have announced four collection weeks this fall to help residents dispose of leaves as the season progresses:
October 19 until October 23
November 2 until November 6
November 16 until November 20
December 7 until December 11
Residents are asked to place leaves in clear or transparent bags and set them out on their regular trash collection day during each designated collection week. To ensure pickup, leaf bags should be kept separate from regular trash and recycling containers.
Officials also remind residents that leaf collection is limited to leaves only. Grass clippings, branches, and other yard waste will not be accepted as part of the program.
The township encourages residents to follow the guidelines to help collection crews operate efficiently and keep neighborhoods clean throughout the fall season.
