Get Ready for Vacuum Leaf Collection in Your Neighborhood
Crews will complete second passes to vacuum leaves Monday-Saturday. Look for orange signs posted around your neighborhood 3 to 7 days before collection starts.
Note: The date on the sign marks the beginning of the leaf collection window. Leaves may not actually be collected on that date, but should be left at the curb from that date until they are collected.
Rake leaves to the curb the weekend before the posted start date for leaf collection in your neighborhood. If you have contracted lawn services, plan ahead to have leaves raked and piled on the curb. You also may place leaves in biodegradable paper leaf bags for weekly bag collection.
