When Piscataway gutters fill up
Trees common in the region, including broadleaf red maple, white oak, hickory, tulip poplar, sweetgum, and eastern white pine, drop a steady stream of debris. Oak catkins fall during spring, followed by spiky sweetgum balls, acorns, and heavy foliage in fall. Leaf drop usually peaks in mid October. Winter brings freezing nights and likely snow to Piscataway, New Jersey, which causes trapped slush to expand inside clogged metal tracks. We recommend gutter cleaning at least twice a year, spring and fall, to keep systems clear before winter weather arrives. Regular spring clearings remove seed pods, while fall visits prepare your channels for winter freezing.
