The Residential Leaf Collection Program is running approximately 3.5 to 4 days behind schedule due to the persistent winter weather. Please be patient as the same crews and trucks that pick up leaves also perform the City's snow and ice control, so when there is a winter weather event, leaf vacuums are swapped for snow plows.
Crews are still finishing up the Northeast and Southwest quadrants, and will begin final pickup in the Northwest and Southeast quadrants later this week as weather permits. They will continue until the quadrants are completed one time through. Crews will work as quickly as possible to complete the program. Adverse weather last week also slowed down crews significantly since leaves become very heavy for the leaf equipment to handle when wet. We thank you for your patience.
