You can view your service area by entering your address at the GIS Map website. Additionally, neighborhood signs will be posted at major intersections within that week's service area.
Guidelines
Separate loose leaves, bagged leaves, brush, and bulky items. These materials are collected, processed, and disposed of differently.
Move loose leaves close to the edge of the pavement as possible, but avoid placing the materials in the street or co-mingling materials.
Avoid raking leaves into ditches. Doing so can cause flooding problems and have a negative impact on water quality.
Avoid raking leaves into the street. Doing so can cause drainage problems and lead to hazardous driving conditions when leaves become wet.
Consider backyard composting. Composting is great for your lawn and for the environment.
Loose leaf collection begins the first week in November every year and will conclude the last week in March of the following year
How To Set Out Your Loose Leaves
Piles should be positioned as close as possible to a public street in front of the residence without blocking the roadway, sidewalks, drainage ditches, or catch basins.
