Rockledge Borough To Begin Leaf Collection

ROCKLEDGE BOROUGH, PA —The borough will soon be moving from leaf peeping to leaf sweeping.

The borough's public works department will begin full leaf collection starting next Monday.

Leaves need to be raked to the curb line each Monday morning by 7 a.m. on residents' scheduled route.

South Jarrett Avenue and Lynnewood Avenue will still need to bag their leaves on Tuesdays because leaf vac cannot fit on those streets.
