Year-round, properly sized/packaged Yard Debris such as downed limbs, brush, and clippings may be disposed of at the DPW garage on Brookside Avenue between 8:00am and 2:00pm, Monday through Friday.
Autumn collection of leaves by the DPW, using vacuum machinery, begins each year in October and continues until December, weather permitting. Please remember LEAVES ONLY. Sticks, stones, pet waste, pet litter, and any other debris will damage the machine and/or result in serious injury. Piles containing anything other than leaves will NOT be collected. Bagged leaves will not be collected.
Springtime collection of yard debris by the DPW begins in April. For collection, you may place biodegradable bags for LEAVES ONLY, and properly sized, and bundled sticks and branches at the curb.
Properly sized and/or packaged = Please use biodegradable bags for leaves ONLY. NO sticks, rocks, twigs or anything but leaves in the bags please. Branches should be tied in bundles and should be cut as follows: If they are more than 2″ diameter cut them to no more than 2-feet long. If they are less than 2″ diameter they can be up to 4-feet long.
The collected yard waste does not get chipped by the Village DPW for repurposing in the Village. The pile has gotten out of control in the last year or two. Village residents may bring debris, but please try to keep in mind that the intention is for managing fallen sticks and branches rather than for large quantities of tree trunks and large debris.
The Village Clerk Business hours are 9am-1pm Monday-Thursday, closed on Friday. The Tracy building is open Monday-Friday for access to other offices-the Building Inspector/Codes Enforcement Officer, Treasurer, Town Court, and Police Department. The Village Clerk drop box at the front door will continue to be used as well. If you have any questions or concerns, please call us at 518-392-5821, x5921.
