LEAF COLLECTION

LEAF COLLECTION

Leaves will be collected by the Village from October 21 through December 30.

Leaf vacuum collection directions:  Simply rake leaves to the front of your lawn near the curb (but NOT into the street) and the Village will collect these leaves. Please be sure your lawn company knows to keep the leaves out of the street.  Leaf collection will go faster if cars are parked in driveways during the day and if ONLY LEAVES are in the piles on the curb.  The crew has to stop to pick out sticks or other debris that can damage the leaf vacs.  Thank you for your cooperation!

Please note:

• Do NOT rake leaves into the street — this is a safety issue for our employees and creates parking problems.
• The week of Thanksgiving and the week before Luminaria, leaf pick-up will be light as the department prepares for Luminaria/tree lighting.
• Prior to October 21 and after December 30th, leaves must be bagged for pick-up in brown paper yard waste bags, available at most hardware stores & Kroger, or a can marked “Yard Waste” and place them at the curb after 6:00 pm the day before your RUMPKE pick up. They’ll be picked up by Rumpke on the same day your trash is collected. Bagging your leaves is the best option if you are concerned about leaves sitting on your grass, as the leaf vacuum schedule can change frequently.
