Never place leaves in plastic bags!

And never mix leaves with branches, rocks, soil, litter or any other debris.

Leaves should not be raked into the street, piled at the curb, or placed in wetlands, streams, storm drains or Land Trust property.

Paper leaf bags are available for purchase at many Branford retailers, including Big Y, Caron’s Corner, Richlin’s, Stop & Shop, Walgreen’s and Wal-Mart.

As always, make sure you put out before midnight the night before your collection day.
