PRESS RELEASE
The Borough of Bedford will begin the annual collection of loose leaves on Monday, November 14, weather permitting. To facilitate collection by workers, most property owners and tenants should rake their leaves directly onto the edge of the street, adjacent to the curb/edge of the street. Only property owners and tenants whose lands are located near to and upstream of a stormwater catchbasin or are located in an area prone to street flooding after severe rainstorms are to place loose leaves along the curbing/edge of the street but not on the street. Tree/shrub limbs, grass, flower/garden plants, rocks, blacktop, garbage, and rubbish, etc. should not be mixed in with the leaves as these items become lodged in the leaf vacuum hoses and cause unnecessary downtime.
If bagging leaves, do NOT use plastic bags. Only leaves placed in recyclable paper bags will be collected.
The public is advised that it is illegal to burn leaves or any other material on the streets.
2022 Leaf Collection Tentative Schedule
Please refer to attached map.
YELLOW = Week 1: November 14 – 18
GREEN = Week 2: November 21 – 23
PINK = Week 3: November 28 – December 2
This schedule is subject to change and crews may move onto the next area if workloads permit. Property owners should notify their landscapers of the above schedule and plan accordingly.

Bedford County Hazard Mitigation Plan Survey
Bedford County is updating it’s Hazard Mitigation Plan (HMP). The HMP analyzes the hazards that impact our communities, evaluates our capabilities to reduce vulnerability to those hazards, and lays out strategies for mitigating those vulnerabilities.
Please take this opportunity to complete the survey below to ensure all areas that are vulnerable to hazards are addressed in the HMP. Please complete the survey by March 25, 2022.
Please join us to celebrate the completion of the Bedford Borough Municipal Building, the Bedford Fire Department No. 1 Building, along with Bedford Ambulance’s 50th Anniversary! Building tours will be conducted and light refreshments will be served. Hope to see everyone there!
