(Chillicothe) — Fall leaf collection gets underway for the City of Chillicothe on October 18th.
Leaf collection is handled the same way as the City’s large item collection program, with a neighborhood’s collection week corresponding to that neighborhood’s trash collection schedule. Neighborhoods with Monday trash collection will have their leaves picked up during the first week of the program, and neighborhoods with Tuesday trash collection will see their leaves gathered during the second week, and so on.
The program kicks off this Monday, October 18th and continues through Friday, October 22nd for neighborhoods with Monday trash collection. The program will be held in two rounds lasting five weeks each. The second round of the program will begin in late November.
Leaves need to be gathered by 7am on the Monday of a neighborhood’s collection week. The City asks that residents rake their leaves to the curbside grassy area outside their homes, and not into the street where they can be washed down into the storm sewers. Yard waste and debris is prohibited.
Residents should be mindful of where they park during their collection week. If a vehicle is blocking access to a leaf pile, those leaves will not be collected.
