Leaf Pick Up

For your convenience, City crews will be coming through your neighborhood for Leaf Pickup this fall. We have mapped out the entire community so please be patient, and we will get to your leaves as soon as we can.

We are fortunate to have a giant leaf vacuum in our fleet of equipment, but to ensure it functions properly and efficiently, we must follow a few important procedures, and you can help:

• Please put your leaves by the curb or street, but not in the street.

• The leaves cannot be more than 5 feet off the curb, as the vacuum will not reach. The City crews will pick up only what they can reach. This will allow us to pick up your pile to help keep streets safe for both drivers and cyclists, as well as preventing property damage.

• Please do not place your leaves in the alley. We cannot use our vacuum machine in the alleyways, due to space restrictions.

• Please do not put brush, weeds, rocks, bricks, or other debris in your leaf piles. This kind of debris can damage our equipment and jeopardize our ability to clean up your neighborhood. If we notice debris in your leaf pile, we will not be able to pick it up.

• If you have an urgent need for leaf pickup before or after the listed dates, please bag your leaves, and call in a bulk-item pickup at 620.332.2507.

• Also, please note that the pickup dates may vary depending on weather conditions or equipment breakdowns.
