Turns out the city has annual leaf collection, where residents simply blow the leaves into the street, and the city cleans them up. I would love to have that. Most places up here have that too.

However, being I have no immediate neighbors, into the woods the leaves will go. Yeah, we don't have it either. I've dumped some in the woods but eventually I realized it's easier to just bag and throw em' to the curb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately since they're a month apart sometimes the leaves sit there in piles before they get picked up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedSky Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Never understood the must dispose of leaves in the fall mentality like they are refuse. Always ran a leaf mulching run with the mower over them in the fall on two properties utilizing the organic fertilizer that they are. Never fertilized a lawn and and usually have among the greenest lawns in the neighbourhood. Silly humans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was in Piscataway up until July this year, and we had to bag them there. This new town picks them up, it was a nice change. Though I did mulch like 99% of what I had. I actually have to do it one more time tomorrow in a few area's then should be done for the year finally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's fine for the grass, but it still doesn't get rid of the mounds in our back patio from various neighbors trees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nesussxwx Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 Great news. Just landed a new job in West Milford NJ. With that I have found an apartment located in Hardyston Township, NJ. Pumped up! New Job, New Area, and with that, the Township itself has an elevation of over 1,000'. Won't have to be watching those snow/rain lines anymore, haha. Will be moving in the next few months.

I didn't realize that vaccing up leaves was not really common practice outside of NJ. I live in northeastern Bergen county and all towns around here have it. My best friend works for Alpine DPW and besides plowing, "leaf season" is the biggest job they do. They work 60 hours a week from mid October to mid December just vacuuming leaves up from the curbs. The properties in that town are huge though, but leaf season is a very big deal around here (at least in his field it is). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ralph Wiggum Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 JMA has an impressive early season snowstorm for the Northeast next Fri-Sat. Pretty much by itself tho as other guidance overwhelms the region with cold and dry conditions.Sent from my LG-V410 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
