[ARCHIVED] Fall leaf collection tentatively set for October 20 to December 5

Fall Leaf Collection is taking place October 20 to December 5. Leaf collection will not have specific dates for each route, but each road will be serviced between the specific collection dates. Collection dates may change without notice due to inclement weather or any other emergency that might arise.

Like in years past, Leaf Collection will take place on Middle Smithfield Township owned roadways, as well as state owned Resica Falls Road, Tom X Road and Lower Lakeview Drive. As always, we ask that you put your leaves on the shoulder as close to the road as possible and keep the piles out of ditches and free of any branches, sticks, rocks, or bags as this causes extreme damage to our Leaf Vacs and will cause a delay in collection. 

If you do not live on one of the serviced roadways, you are more than welcome to bring any leaves to the Oak Grove Multi-Municipal Compost Facility for disposal. Please remember that if you are bringing them to the facility, do not put them in bags.

If you live in an HOA or community and wish to participate in this program, a centralized collection point must be established within your community. To coordinate this, contact Rachel at 570-223-8920 x142. 

Just a reminder that all open burning of leaves is prohibited.

If you have questions, please contact the Public Works Department at 570-223-8920 x142.
