Jenkintown Borough recently announced their fall curbside leaf collection, which begins Monday, October 30 and continues through Thursday, December 21.

Residents are asked to adhere to the following regulations in order to ensure a successful collection:

• Do not put leaves in the road prior to the day before the scheduled collection. Leaves that are placed in the roadway prior to the night before are a serious safety concern as well as detrimental to storm water run off as they clog the storm drainage system. (contractors who do not comply will be cited)
• Do not park on top of leaves. This prohibits access to the leaves and can be a fire hazard.
• Do not include rocks, sticks, trash, etc. for collection with leaves.  This does damage to the collection machine and results in down time for repairs. Leaf piles with any of these items above will not be collected.
• Please observe all regulatory parking signs.
• Leaves should not be burned for disposal
