Spring leaf pickup underway in the village of Canton

Posted

CANTON — Spring leaf pick-up in the village began on Monday, April 5, and continues through Friday, May 14.

During the pick-up period, the village DPW crew follows a route that covers about 16 miles of village roads. Once complete they run the route again, following a system to ensure they cover all neighborhoods equally.

The crews will pick up brush, leaves, and grass bagged in paper bags, and they will chip and remove wood and branches under 6 inches in diameter.

Brush must be left in paper leaf bags, which are available at most of our local stores and are very competitively priced. The use of plastic bags has been eliminated because of the Village’s recycling program; plastic bags will not be picked up.

The DPW will also do pick ups once a month – on the last Thursday of the June, July, August, and September.
