Homes and gutters

The houses in Cherry Valley Township, and what they mean for the gutters

Cherry Valley Township was built up steadily rather than all at once. 55.7% of homes were built before 1980 and 14.8% since 2000, with a median year built of 1978 (Winnebago County: 1972). That mix means quotes vary: a 1970s ranch is a short job, a 1990s two-story a longer one.

35.7% of occupied homes in Cherry Valley Township are rented (Winnebago County: 34.1%). For rental owners, a twice-a-year schedule with photos beats finding out from a tenant. See rental property gutter cleaning.

3.2% of housing units are in buildings with 2 to 4 units and 26.8% in buildings with 5 or more, so duplexes, two-flats and complexes are a real part of the gutter work in Cherry Valley Township; associations and owners can see commercial and HOA gutter cleaning.

Leaves and local rules

What happens to the leaves in Cherry Valley Township

Can you burn the leaves? Winnebago County bans burning leaves and grass at all times in unincorporated subdivisions that sit within a mile of a town that bans it. Farther out, dry landscape waste may be burned only on weekends from April 15 to May 15 and on November weekends, between 10 a.m. and 7 p.m., at least 25 feet from any building or property line and never when the wind tops 10 mph. source

One rule applies everywhere in Illinois: since 1990, landscape waste can't be mixed with trash bound for a landfill and must go out in biodegradable containers (415 ILCS 5/22.22). So gutter debris in Cherry Valley Township goes out as yard waste, into a compost pile, or away with the crew.
