Our free leaf pickup continues!
Today crews with the Public Works Department are in section 2, and crews will continue to move throughout the different sections of the City throughout the season to pickup the leaves!
To help our crews work safely and efficiently, here are a few things to keep in mind:
LEAF PLACEMENT: Place loose leaves within 3–5 feet of the roadway as soon as they fall. Please DO NOT place leaves in the road, drainage ditches, or on sidewalks.
KEEP LEAVES CLEAR: Avoid placing leaves around mailboxes, trees, fences, utility covers, vehicles, or other obstacles. Leaves placed around or behind these objects will not be collected.
COLLECTION SCHEDULE: Crews will work through designated zones rather than individual call-in requests. Once all zones have been completed, crews will begin another round of collection.
MULTIPLE OPPORTUNITIES: Crews are expected to make multiple passes throughout the city, with a tentative return every 6–8 weeks. Leaf vacuum season typically continues through February, weather permitting.
ALTERNATIVE COLLECTION: Residents can also bag their leaves for collection during the biweekly Brush/Junk route.
