Leaf Collection

Fall leaf collection for 2012 will be the weeks of October 22nd, November 5th and November 26th.  [Read]  

>Please place all leaves along side of the road on lawn area within six feet (6’) of road edge.  Placing leaves on lawn allows the leaves to dry and the vacuum can pick them up easier.  Leaves must not be placed on the roadway, as this can cause a traffic hazard and will not be picked up by the Road Crew. Do not block storm drain inlets and drainage areas.  Our leaf vac cannot pick up sticks and branches so please do not mix them with your leaf piles.  Leaves can be placed in paper leaf bags but not in plastic bags.

> If you have any further questions, please contact the East Brandywine Township Office at (610) 269-8230.

>Thank you for your participation and cooperation.

Outdoor Burning

Outdoor burning of leaves, limbs and brush is no longer permitted in East Brandywine Township. Burning of these materials will jeopardize the Township’s ability to obtain annual recycling performance grants, and equipment grants participating with other neighboring municipalities, obtained from the PA Department of Environmental Protection.

Recreational fires, such as campfires, are still permitted. An outdoor burning permit is still required for these fires, however, to make certain these events are conducted safely, and avoid unnecessary emergency dispatches.

If you have further questions, please contact the Township Office.

Wood Chipping

> Each resident is allowed fifteen minutes of chipping per calendar year. A calendar year starts January 1st and ends December 31st.

> After fifteen minutes, $25.00 charge for every fifteen minutes.  Second chipping in calendar year is $25.00 charge for every fifteen minutes. 

> Resident that calls and has not put out material counts as one free chipping.  If resident has not paid any previous fees, no further chipping will be allowed.

> Township employees can limit time spent chipping due to workload.

>  Please list name, address and phone number, along with billing address, if different. Township employees will document arrival time, completion time on work order and initial.

> During emergency, Township employees will chip material free of charge to clear roadway; any additional chipping will be done by appointment. We will no longer chip for free after a major storm.
