  4. ONLY LEAVES, no twigs, branches, stones, etc... in leaf pile (breaks machine and crews will not pick up leaf pile)

Utilize the yard waste program to dispose of your leaves until the leaf program begins and in between scheduled collections.

Please do not mix sticks, branches or other yard waste in with your leaves at the curb. Branches, rocks and other debris cause major damage to the leaf vacuum machines. Please ONLY LEAVES at the curb for vacuum collection.
