Spring Leaf and Branch Collection

2024 SPRING BRANCH AND LEAF PICKUP

Spring branch and leaf pickup is set to begin mid-April. You should contact a landscaper or tree contractor for items larger than 6 inches in diameter, stumps or root balls. To verify your zone, please call 732-968-1023 x6689. 

These are the START DATES - it does not mean that the branches and leaves will be picked up ON this date or BY this date.  Please place your material at the curb by the date for your zone.  PLEASE KEEP YOUR LEAVES AND BRANCHES IN SEPARATE PILES.  MIXED PILES WILL NOT BE PICKED UP.

Please refrain from putting the piles IN the street, which creates traffic concerns and also impacts street drainage by forcing water into the travel lanes and clogging catch basins.  Please refrain from calling Town Hall to ask when your piles are going to be picked up.  If you believe your pile has been missed, please e-mail dpw@greenbrooktwp.org. If you do not have email access, you may call 732-968-1023 x6602 and leave a message with your name and address. You will not receive a return call, but your info will be given to DPW.
