City Of Fairfax To Provide Curbside Leaf Collection Oct. 31 - Dec. 30

Press release from the City of Fairfax :

10/10/2022 10:29 AM

Curbside leaf collection is provided to city refuse customers in the autumn — and in 2022, service will be provided from Oct. 31 through Dec. 30.

During that time, please rake loose leaves to the curb. Bagged leaves will not be collected until January 2023.

Give leaf piles a minimum 6-foot clearance from overhead obstructions, and avoid parking vehicles on leaf piles.

Light yard debris (such as grass clippings and weeds) may be included in leaf piles.

Keep stones, branches, bushes, and other large items out of leaf piles because these items can injure workers and damage equipment.

The city is divided into six sections, and leaves are collected in rotation by neighborhood about once every two weeks. Heavy leaf fall or inclement weather may affect leaf collection.

Please note: the vacuum truck that collects leaves can give off some dust, particularly during dry weather. This dust is not dangerous and poses no health threats to humans or animals. We apologize for any dust you may encounter from this service.

Information: 703-385-LEAF.
