2025 Fall Leaf Pickup Season

Fall leaf pickup is here! This year, the Public Works Department (DPW) will collect leaves weekly for the entire City, one business day before your normal trash pickup day. This change will make the collection more efficient and streamlined. The program begins the week of October 20, 2025, and ends the week of November 24, 2025.

 

Please follow these procedures:

  • Rake your leaves, free of debris, to the curb by 7:00 a.m. on the day of your scheduled pickup.
  • Do not pile leaves on the easement between the curb and the sidewalk.
  • Move vehicles out of the way if possible to help keep the process efficient.
  • Leaves piled high for too long can cause a parking hazard.
  • If you miss a pickup, please wait until the following week to rake your leaves to the curb.
  • Yard waste items like sticks, rocks, and grass do not belong in the leaf pickup pile. However, you can combine everything in your yard waste, which must be placed in a labeled container or a brown kraft bag.
  • Please note: DPW will issue warnings for any leaves at the curb by Monday, December 1, 2025. After this point, leaves can be mixed with yard waste until the week of Friday, December 19, 2025.

For questions, please contact the Public Works Department at 248-546-2519.
