- Keep leaves unbagged or use only paper bags. Mark bags with contents, such as leaves, brush, grass, etc.
- Put leaves out the weekend prior to your scheduled pickup
- Rake leaves to the curb, but do not rake into the street it if will block traffic
- Do not mix trash or braches with the leaves, as this clogs the machines. Leaves will not be picked up with other debris mixed into the pile.
- Park vehicles away from leaf piles during your pickup week.
