Leaf Pickup Begins This Month

Leaf Collection is set to start October 24th and will run through the middle of December.

Here are some friendly reminders to help get you and your yard ready for leaf pickup day. For more information, please visit our website.

There will be at least one crew assigned to each ward (1,2,3 and 4). If you’re unsure where you live in, click here.

Crews will collect leaves every three weeks, Monday through Friday, and will begin each day where they ended the day before.

If you’d prefer not to wait on our crews, Republic Services will pick up your bagged leaves as part of their yard waste disposal.

We have created a Master Street List by ward, which is updated every afternoon to help you track crews progress throughout the City. This can be accessed on the Curbside Leaf Collection page under the Public Works section on our website.

Please rake your leaves to the edge of your property next to the street. Do not pile the leaves up in the street or gutter.

Do not park on top, or in front of leaf piles.

This program may be delayed, halted, or ended due to weather conditions, manpower issues, heightened leaf volume, equipment down time, etc.

There will be no pickup on City-observed holidays (Nov. 24, Nov. 25, Dec. 23, Dec. 26)

Leaves will NOT be collected from any multi-family units such as apartments, condominiums, or villas.

Leaves will NOT be collected along private streets within any multi-family complexes or any commercial, school, institutions, or non-City governmental properties.
