Leaf Pickup

The Borough of Rockledge picks up leaf bags every Tuesday. Please be mindful that the bags weigh no more than 35 lbs.  Bags should be placed at the curb no earlier than 8:00 pm Monday evening.  The leaf vacuum is used on Saturdays in the fall to pick up leaves that have fallen from trees along the curb lines.  

Acceptable Yard Waste: leaves, brush, grass, twigs, and branches.  Branches must be bundled and tied not exceeding 3" in diameter and 4' in length.  No more than 6 bundles of branches per residence per week will be picked up.  The Borough does not offer services for full tree pickup.  You must contact a private contractor.

Snow Plowing

During the winter season, the Streets Department plows streets throughout the Borough. If a snow emergency has been declared, the Streets department will plow each side of the street alternately each day. On even days, please park your vehicle on the even side of the road, and on odd days, please park your vehicle on the odd side of the road. This will allow the snow plow personnel to plow the free side of the road. It is recommended that you shovel your driveway and park there to decrease the number of vehicles on the street, as it become difficult to find parking during this season.

Christmas Tree Pickup

In January and February, the Streets Department will pick up Christmas trees on Tuesdays.  Trees should be placed at the curb for pickup.
