Leaf Collection Schedule PDF Print E-mail
Leaf collections start in April and again in late October. Please follow these simple rules:

  • LEAVES IN PLASTIC BAGS, preferably clear bags, will be collected from curbside.
  • Do not secure or tie the top of the bag. Untied bags can be emptied more quickly.
  • All your bagged leaves must be at curbside on Monday before 7:00 a.m. of your designated week. The truck will pick up only once sometime that week.
  • After the second collection period for your area, bagged or loose leaves must be brought to the Recycling Center (located on Church Road, East of No. Bay Avenue), between 7:30 a.m. and 3:00 p.m., Monday through Saturday.
  • We encourage backyard leaf composting and the use of mulching lawn mowers.

    Sometimes we are ahead of schedule and you may consider putting your bagged leaves to the curb since we may come early. However, if we do come early, we will still come through your area once during your scheduled collection week.

    We encourage backyard leaf composting.
