Town to Pick Up Storm Debris

The town of Bedford's Department of Public Works announced that highway workers will remove storm debris from local properties beginning Nov. 13.

Here's the full announcement, via the town website:

The Town is entering leaf pickup season from designated hamlet areas and snow will not be far behind, so please minimize the quantity you put out since it may end up covered with snow. The fact that we will be picking up storm debris will reduce the amount of pickups we provide for leaf removal. A leaf removal schedule will be published by November 11th.

All storm debris must be out at the edge of your property by November 13th. Debris must be placed so it does not interfere with traffic. DPW will collect only up to two cubic yards of storm debris material per household. Any material beyond two cubic yards will be left behind and must be removed by the property owner. Debris pickup will occur once per road.

Once DPW has been through a street for pickup, they will not come back for storm debris. Logs over 10” diameter shall not be greater than 3’ in length. Contact DPW at 666-7669 with any questions.
