Leaf Bag/Yard Waste Collection

Town of North Andover, MA

The Town’s contractor was around town today collecting leaf bags that were missed earlier in the week.  In addition, crews will be out next week collecting bags that were covered/inaccessible due to Thursday’s snow.


As a reminder we have expanded the open schedule for Cyr Recycle Center.  The new schedule will be as follows:

8:00 am to 3:00 pm on Open Days

Week of November 12th – Open Saturday (today)
Week of November 19th – Open Monday through Wednesday and Saturday (closed Thursday and Friday for the Thanksgiving Holiday)
Week of November 26th – Open Monday through Saturday
Week of December 3rd – Open Monday through Saturday

We will also extend leaf bag collection an extra week.  Leaf bags will be collected during the week of November 26th along with bundled brush.  Just a reminder, please have all leaf bags and brush curbside at the beginning of the week as collection does not follow the trash/recycle schedule.
