To find your location’s date, visit the “My Home” page and type in your address. The City is also sending texts to alert customers of leaf collection this year.
The City put out some guidelines to help streamline the leaf collection process:
- Do not bag your leaves; bagged leaves will not be picked up by the City
- Make sure your leaves are not under, between, or around parked cars
- Do not put grass clippings, tree branches, or brush in with your leaves as these materials will not be picked up
- Rake your leaves out no earlier than the weekend prior to the scheduled pick up
