Public Works FAQs

 

 How do I report potholes or a hole in the road near a storm drain?

Call the Franklin Lakes Department of Public Works at 201-891-4333 or fill out a service request online.

 When does deicing occur during snowfall?

Deicing procedures start when the roads begin to cover with snow or become slippery. County roads are pre-treated prior to inclement weather.

 What do I do with my leaves?

You can bring leaves to the leaf compost area located on DeKorte Drive (residents only) across from the Police Department on scheduled Saturdays and Sundays during the Spring and Fall. Click here to view the seasonal weekend schedule.

 When does snow plowing start?

Snow plowing procedures begin after the roads have a two inch layer of snow or as determined by the Franklin Lakes DPW. All vehicles that are parked in the roadway should be removed from the roadway before plowing begins.
