City employees will pick up limbs and brush in moderate amounts from pruning and trimming. This service will NOT include pick up of limbs and brush left from tree removals or large trimming projects, such as taking out a long hedgerow, etc. No grass or leaves are permitted.

  • Rake all leaves into the street two feet from the curb to allow for drainage.
  • No foreign materials such as rocks, brush, branches, or garden materials. These materials may cause mechanical problems to the leaf machine.
  • Avoid parking on the street during collection weeks. Cars parked on dry leaves may cause fires.

**Leaves that are placed on the street or curb lawn after the 2nd collection time shall be the responsibility of the homeowner to dispose of appropriately.

Please note that the following alternatives are available for leaf disposal:

  • The City has established a leaf drop off point behind the building at 600 West Madison St. Residents may drop off leaves until December 24th.
  • Waste Management will pick-up leaves on your regular scheduled trash pick-up day. Leaves must be placed in your trash toter with your regular trash. Leaves placed in other containers, such as recycling, and/or bags placed outside of the toter will not be accepted.
