Southampton Leaf Pickup

By
Star Staff

Southampton Town’s spring cleanup begins today. Highway Superintendent Alex Gregor said leaf bags and brush placed on the side of the road will be hauled away as highway workers make their rounds. All residents, regardless of age or disability, must use biodegradable paper bags. Leaves cannot be mixed with other material and cannot be left in loose piles. Branches less than three inches in diameter, left in a separate pile next to bagged leaves, will also be picked up. Workers will pass each road only once. 

Residents may also haul leaves and brush to the transfer stations themselves and leave them free of charge until May 31.

Further information is available through the leaf program hotline at 631-702-2585. East of the canal, biodegradable paper bags are available at hardware stores in Sag Harbor Village and Southampton, as well as Stop and Shop in Southampton.
