Leaf Collection
Fall 2025 Leaf Collection begins the week of Nov. 3
The city assists residents with the removal of leaves between November and early January. Leaves can be placed at the curb at any time and will be collected as crews and equipment are available. The final pass through of the city will be in January. Leaves placed at the curb after that may not be collected.
A schedule for individual streets will not be provided. A story will be updated in the Newsroom with the start date and other details for the program shortly before it starts.
To participate in the leaf collection program, please follow these guidelines:
- Rake leaves to the curb or street right-of-way by the beginning of leaf collection. As more leaves fall, you may continue to rake to the curb or street right-of-way.
- Keep leaves away from gutters, drain pipes and drop inlets so as not to block the flow of stormwater.
- Remove rocks, sticks, brush and other objects from leaf piles as they can damage equipment and delay the program. The City will not collect leaf piles containing sticks, rocks, and debris.
-
Take extra care to keep leaves off of sidewalks and pedestrian paths to maintain safe access for everyone.
