Spring Leaf Collection

Spring has just arrived and warmer weather leads to yardwork.  The Voorhees Township Public Works Department is assisting in this chore by offering spring leaf collection as well as vegetation and yard waste removal. Signs will be posted at the entrance of each development prior to the scheduled leaf collection week.  The schedule is available on the Voorhees Township Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Next Door pages, and on the municipal website under Public Works www.voorheesnj.com

OPTION #1: PLACE LOOSE LEAVES CURB SIDE:

  • PLACE LEAVES CURBSIDE IN FRONT OF YOUR HOME THE WEEKEND PRIOR TO THE SCHEDULED WEEK.

Due to the unpredictability of the weather, the Public Works Department cannot     guarantee any additional passes once your street has been vacuumed. Keep your leaf

pile free of branches and twigs which will clog the machine.
