Leaf Collection Schedule

Curbside Leaf Pickup Program is Complete

The Curbside Leaf Pickup Program for the 2025 was completed in January. Our Service Crews are now focused on maintaining streets during winter weather and snow events. Updates will resume in this fall in preparation for the next leaf season. 

Leaf Management Tips

  • Rake leaves to the back of the curb but not in the street. If possible, please avoid placing leaf piles near mailboxes, trees, lights or signs.
  • Please do not include yard waste or grass clippings in the leaves. These items clog the machines and create significant delays in pickup.
  • Avoid parking in front of large leaf piles whenever possible. If piles are blocked, our crews will be unable to remove them.
  • Please keep leaves out of storm water sewers and stream banks. Leaves cause bacteria that depletes oxygen and can kill fish and other stream organisms.
  • Leaves can also be collected during scheduled yard waste collection dates if they are placed in paper yard waste bags or in a container marked as "yard waste".

Frequently Asked Questions

Where is the Leaf Truck?

Bexley has three leaf extraction trucks that run each day. Initially, one truck will be deployed in north, central, and south Bexley. The leaf pick-up map will be updated daily throughout pick-up season with truck starting locations, however truck routes can and do vary due to volume, truck maintenance, and leaf fall timing.

Leaf pickup is a challenging and time-consuming project in our arboretum city, so please be patient while our crews work. 

Won't the leaf piles kill the grass on my tree lawn?

No. Grass is dormant in autumn and while it can take time for leaf piles to be picked up, the piles will not kill your grass.

Please note, leaves can also be bagged for pick-up with yard waste on scheduled yard waste collection dates. If you'd like your leaves to be picked up with yard waste, place them in paper yard waste bags or in a container marked as "yard waste". 

What's the most sustainable way to handle leaves?

Mulch them! Fallen leaves add great nutrients to your lawn, so using mulching blades while mowing reduces the need for leaf pickup while....
