IMPORTANT NOTES:

  • Leaves should be placed in the street (not yard) and slightly away from the curb to allow for storm water drainage and ease in leaf collection efforts.
  • Leaves placed in the street prior to the specified date will be subject to a fine.
  • It should be noted that any brush, sod, bricks, rocks, trash or other foreign materials will damage machinery, hamper our ability to perform our pickup, and lead to a visit from the Code Enforcement Officer with a possible citation.
  • Please do not place leaves in street terraces (i.e., the areas between the sidewalk line and the curb, when present) as city equipment cannot pick them up.

DPS offers a compost drop off area for city residents: located at 1015 S. Lincoln Avenue, and is open from 7:00 am to 4:00 pm Monday through Saturday.  City residents (only) can drop off brush, leaves, grass clippings and garden waste at the compost area.  If you have any questions, please call 269-273-1845.
