FAIRFAX, VA — Leaf Collection in April? Sure. Spring is the best time to get rid of those last few remants of fall that still clutters some parts of yards.

As such, the City of Fairfax Public Works Department will provide curbside leaf collection on Tuesdays beginning next week:

  • April 4
  • April 11
  • April 18
  • April 25

Leaves raked to the curb by 7 a.m. on collection day.

During the month, no bagged leaves will be collected.

The city uses vacuum trucks with special dust filters to collect leaves curbside. However, despite the filters, there will be an unavoidable amount of dust as a by-product of this service. For most people, this will be unnoticeable — but rest assured, it is harmless and will not damage property.
