The Wenham Department of Public Works will start the loose leaf pick-up on the west side of town with Maple Street at the Danvers townline and continue down Maple, picking up the side streets, including Birch, Burley, Puritan, Mayflower, etc. At Topsfield Road, the DPW will head easterly, picking up all side streets and then westerly to the Hilltop Road/Burnham Road area.
The DPW will continue to Cedar Street, then Cherry Street and all side streets off Cherry to Route 1A. The department will then jump to the easterly side of town at Grapevine Road and the Beverly line.
From there, the DPW will head westerly down Grapevine Road, picking up all side streets.
The DPW will continue on to Dodges Row, Walnut Street and Larch Row to Route 1A, then Fairview, Patti, Fiske, Lake and Great Pond roads. Lastly, the DPW will pick-up Main Street, Arbor Street, Perkins, Porter and all side streets. This loose leaf pick-up should conclude by Dec. 16.
If necessary, a bagged leaf pick-up will be conducted by Wenham DPW on Saturday, Dec. 17. All leaves must be placed curbside in paper bags or open trash barrels by 7 a.m. No plastic bags are allowed.
Please contact the Wenham DPW with any questions at 978-468-5520 X6.
The DPW makes every effort to pass through each street twice, but due to the uncertainty of the weather this time of year, it is not always possible. Check local listings and/or the town website for updates.
