Homes and gutters
The houses in Roscoe Township, and what they mean for the gutters
Newer subdivisions make up much of Roscoe Township. 38.8% of homes were built in 2000 or later, compared with 13.6% county-wide, for a median year built of 1995. Younger trees drop less than a mature canopy, so many of these gutters clog more from spring seeds blowing in than from fall leaves.
31.2% of homes here have four or more bedrooms (Winnebago County: 18.7%). Bigger houses mean more linear feet of gutter, which is what per-foot pricing at $0.95 to $2.25 is based on.

Leaves and local rules
What happens to the leaves in Roscoe Township
Burning. 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
Under every local rule sits the state one: 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 Roscoe Township goes out as yard waste, into a compost pile, or away with the crew.
