The City of Hoboken is distributing free paper bags for collecting leaves. Residents and business owners can pick up the bags at the City Garage (Willow Ave & Observer Highway), the Parking Utility in City Hall, the Hoboken Library, and the Fire Station at 1313 Washington Street.
“As the leaves fall and the snow season approaches, we ask for everyone to work together to keep our City clean,” said Mayor Dawn Zimmer.
Full leaf bags can be placed on the curb for pickup. If necessary, residents may also call the garage at 201-420-2277 to request that bags be delivered to them or to pick up full bags. Leaves are taken to the Nature’s Choice facility for composting.
Property owners or occupants are reminded that they are responsible for cleaning up the sidewalk in front of their business or residence. When snow falls, they are responsible for clearing sidewalks of snow within 6 hours of the completion of a storm.
“I thank all our residents and business owners for working together to keep Hoboken clean and beautiful,” added Mayor Zimmer.
