283.1WHYNOW::NEWMANWhat, me worry? YOU BET!Thu Apr 18 1991 12:054
If my memory serves me correctly the leaf pickup will be Saturday, 4 May 1991.

As far as bags go, I am not sure of all of the places to purchase them but last time I bought them I 
purchased them at Victory on RT62
283.2What about sand pickup?MR4DEC::DERAMOFri Apr 19 1991 00:466
    Any word on when spring street sweeping will begin? I usually try to
    sweep the sand off my sidewalk and into the street before this event. 
    
    As an aside, does anybody know whether this "used" sand gets recycled?
    There must be *tons* of it picked up each spring, though it would
    probably need to be sifted to remove pebbles and organic matter. 
283.3Sand is not recycledTHOTH::FILZDTN 223-2033Fri Apr 19 1991 10:245
    The DPW will post a notice when and what streets will be sweeped. As
    far the sand it is just dump. I was told that the sand is
    rounded,smoothed etc that it has no clinging properties left so it is
    useless to reuse and it does do good as a land fill cover also.
    
283.4The sweepin has begunGOLF::GALVINo..........|||| CandlepinsTue Apr 23 1991 20:334

283.5bring it yourself? USCTR2::KDUNNFri May 17 1991 17:5912
ok, back to the leaves question. 

Where do you get the bags?  Victory was out and Aubuchon does not 
carry.  

Also, leaf pick up is twice or three times a year, right?  what if you 
use these bags for your grass clippings?   Can you bring them to the 
heap yourself?   where?  when?  rules?  

Thanks
