Know the schedule, requirements and tips to be ready.

2021 Collection Schedule

Map showing collection areas.

  • Leaves will be collected at residences located North of 9th Avenue Nov.1-5
  • Leaves will be collected at residences located South of 9th Avenue Nov. 8-12

Guidelines

  • Leaves must be bagged, no piles will be collected, paper bags are preferred to help reduce plastic waste
  • All bags must be out before 7 a.m. on the MONDAY of your scheduled collection week and should be left out the entire week until collected.
  • Place bags in front of your house by the curb – AKA “curbside”
  • Bagged leaves will not be collected in alleys or on private property. Even if your trash/recycling collection occurs in an alley, you must place limbs curbside in front of your property for pick-up.
  • Only one pass will be made through each neighborhood, so be sure to have leaves out before 7 a.m. on the Monday of your collection week
    • Any leaf bags put out after the collection day will not be collected by the City and will be the responsibility of the homeowner

Tips

  • Pick-up free leaf bags at the Waste Diversion Center (140 Martin Street) beginning Oct. 1 while supplies last
  • For those that miss the curbside collection or prefer to dispose of leaves on their own schedule:
    • The Waste Diversion Center accepts yard-waste all year long (no need to wait for the City collection!)
    • Curbside composting subscribers can add leaves to their composting cart at any time (loose or in paper bags).
