Now is a good time to review the Township's snow removal regulations which can be found on our website Township of Teaneck New Jersey - Home Page (teanecknj.gov) ,and the Teaneck Times Recycling Calendar
REMINDER - Parking of any vehicle on any portion of a public street is prohibited whenever snow is falling and the accumulation is such that it covers the public streets in the township and plowing is required, except where designated.
The term "snow" includes sleet, hail and/or ice. Before storms begin, the main streets will be pre-treated with an environmentally safe solution that reduces the temperature at which snow freezes. During storms, snowplows will concentrate on keeping two lanes clear on every street. After storms, plows will return to widen the streets curb line to curb line.
PLEASE wait to do your final clean-up after the streets are cleared, which is typically six (6) to eight (8) hours after the storm is over.
For additional off-street parking, residents are encouraged to use any of the municipal parking lots. Beginning six hours before snow fall is predicted to start and until 24 hours after snow fall has stopped, all hourly limits and meter fees in Township lots are waived.
Please refer to the Township's website: www.teanecknj.gov for the list of municipal parking lots and authorized parking areas.
