As was advertised in the Around Town Newsletter, the Highway Department will begin the collection of residential leaf piles on Wednesday, November 01, 2023 (weather dependent).

What: The leaf collection program is a free service for Erving residents.  Leaves should be raked into piles along the curbside. The Department begins collection on Erving-Side and will continue east through town.  The Department works as quickly as possible, but depending on several factors, the collection could take up-to two (2) weeks to complete.

Important: The Department asks that residents ensure that leaf piles do not include sticks, pet waste, garden waste, glass, or any other household waste.  Piles that include these waste items will not be collected. Sticks and other items can clog the collection unit and damage the equipment.  Pet waste is a biological hazard that should be disposed of through other means.  This collection is only for tree leaves.

Lastly, please do not block sidewalks, fire hydrants, or create piles in the roadway.

Thank you for your cooperation!
