Township to Pick-up Storm Damaged Tree Branches

After touring the tree damage throughout Warren Township and listening to the concerns of residents, the Warren Township Committee has authorized the Warren Township Department of Public Works to remove and chip trees placed in the Right-of-Way beginning on Monday, Nov. 14. 

The following restrictions will apply:

• All trees must be placed along the curb line on the lawn.  No trees may be placed in the street.
  
• Public Works will only pick up trees that are 4 inches in diameter and cut no longer than 10 foot lengths.
• Each street will be picked up only once beginning on Nov. 14th through the end of November.  Trees must be placed at the curb prior to Nov. 14 as a precise schedule cannot be provided.
• In order to ensure the safety of the residents, trees should not be placed in the roadway in order to allow emergency vehicles to access all homes. 

Warren Township has 120 miles of roads and 323 municipal streets.  Your patience during this removal process is greatly appreciated. 

Please be advised that the Township has been made aware that some insurance companies provide coverage for the removal of trees and loss of food.  Please contact your individual carrier or agent relative to your homeowner’s insurance. 

For additional information regarding the tree removal, please contact the Warren Township Department of Public Works at (908) 753-1223.
