Snow Event Parking Notice
Please avoid parking on Township streets and cul-de-sacs during snow events to allow for safe and efficient snow removal.

During a declared snow emergency, parking on Township streets is prohibited by ordinance and may result in fines and/or towing. Any damage to vehicles struck by Township plow trucks is the responsibility of the vehicle owner’s insurance, not the Township. Thank you for your cooperation.

Our goal is to clear all streets within 18-24 hours after snow has stopped falling.

**Plowing, blowing, or shoveling snow onto township streets is strictly prohibited.**

Sidewalks must be cleared within 24 hours after snow/ice event. Do not pile snow between the street and sidewalk, it could be pushed back on the walk by the passing plow.

Note: State Roads are NOT plowed by East Manchester Township.

Mailbox Damage Policy

  • Mailbox Damage Policy
  • Mailbox Damage Claim Form
  • Operators attempt to plow to the edge of the pavement, please keep your box beyond the edge or curb.
  • Heavy snow rolling off the plow can sometimes damage boxes. Damage due to pushed snow will not be repaired. A good, strong mailbox or a mailbox designed for heavy snow (cantilever post), usually withstand the storm.
  • Operators do not clear snow for mail delivery, it is too time-consuming.
  • The Township is not responsible for mailboxes on State Roads. The Township does not plow State Roads.
