The Township of Mount Laurel Public Works Department will continue collecting the leaves with the revised plan that was implemented with the spring collection.

• Signs will be posted one week prior to the collection of leaves rather than having a scheduled date
• Leaves must be raked to the area between the curb and sidewalk by 7:00 am of the posted week
• Pursuant to the municipal storm water management regulations adopted by the NJ Department of Environmental Protection, leaves may not be placed in the roadway or within ten (10') feet of a storm drain.
• Brush must not be mixed with the leaves
• Wet weather may delay the removal of leaves, however they will be picked up as soon as possible thereafter
• It is suggested, at this time, that residents begin using biodegradable leaf bags if bagging
• Please do not place bagged leaves with trash. Also, do not put loose leaves in waste receptacles. They will not be collected with your normal trash collection
• If residents are bagging leaves, Public Works must be called for collection. Phone number (856) 234-2070

Please be aware that the Pike Road Compost area will now only be open during the week from 8:00 am to 2:oo pm for those residents wanting to drop off leaves and brush.

Contractors will not be allowed to use this area for their debris.

If you are planning to drop off leaves or brush:
Residents should only bring leaves and brush to the Pike Road Complex.
