State law and Township Ordinance prohibits disposing of leaves, grass, branches, twigs, and garden refuse with household refuse; these must be recycled.

In addition to curbside collections, residents may drop off biodegradable paper bags containing leaves, grass, twigs and/or garden debris at the Waverly Road Compost Facility, located on Waverly Road between Church Road and Cheltenham Avenue in Laverock. The facility is open weekdays from 8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., except holidays, and Saturdays from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., unless affected by holidays. 

NOTE:  Biodegradable paper bags may not be dumped at the facility when it is closed. Violators are subject to fines.

 

Branch Collections

Disposing of large branches requires an appointment for a special collection, which entails a fee.  However, no branch collections will be scheduled during the fall leaf collection program.

Branch collection requires a special appointment and entails a minimum $10 fee. Call 215-887-6200, ext. 330, to schedule an appointment before placing the branches at the curb.
