It's "Clean-Up Week" in Chapleau.
This week, the Township's Public Works Department will only be picking up yard waste - like grass clippings, leaves, shrubs, hedges, branches, and small trees - so long as they're properly bagged and set out on the curbside - "woody" material must also be cut into four-foot lengths and bundled with twine.
The Township recommends raking debris from the shoulder of the roadway, trimming grass, hedges, and trees that are overgrowing the sidewalk, sweeping off the pavement and sidewalk, and cleaning up all unwanted rubbish, debris, or trash that's accumulated on your property.
Residents can also use the landfill free of charge this week - during regular hours - though there are some restrictions on what's accepted, with the Township noting it'll be holding a collection event for certain hazardous waste on June 18th.
Mayor Michael Levesque touts this week.
Mayor Levesque also notes an event to cleanup the Peace Park will be held Saturday, starting at 9 am.
To coincide with Clean-Up Week, the Township's also kicking off its Spring Street Cleaning Program, with sweeping to happen between midnight and 8 am, weather permitting - signs will be posted to further detail plans.
