Grass Clippings Reminder
Saturday, May 2, 2026 · Leicester, MA
As spring yard work picks up, town officials are reminding residents not to blow or sweep grass clippings into streets. Clippings can clog storm drains, create slippery road conditions, and wash into local waterways. The guidance is a simple one, but it makes a real difference for road safety and stormwater protection across Leicester. It is a good moment to bag clippings, compost them, or keep them on the lawn where appropriate.
