Crews will begin to collect tree branches brought down during storm Thursday morning and will continue through the week, the township said. Depending how the storm, the township may extend branch collection into next week.

Residents are asked to place the branches curbside, on their own property and not in the street, and to help by possibly cutting them into four-foot lengths, the township said.

"Our Public Works staff will work their way through the Township collecting the branches in an effort to help our residents in disposing of these items that came down during the storm," the township said. "Thank you for your courtesy you have extended to our staff and your continued cooperation and patience in this challenging time for our community!"
