Annual Leaf Pick-Up Dates

Again this year, the Town of Danville will be coming to our neighborhood to vacuum fall leaves. There will be two dates for leaf pick up: Monday, October 24 and Monday, November 28. Here are the town’s guidelines to follow when putting your leaves out for pick-up:

• Have leaves out for pick-up by 7:00 am.
• Rake the leaves to the area between the sidewalk and the curb. 
• Do not rake leaves into the street — leaves must be on the property side of the curb.
• Do not put leaves out earlier than 48 hours of the scheduled pick-up day. 
• ONLY leaves (no sticks or yard waste) in the pile to be vacuumed — anything other than leaves can clog and damage the equipment.
• Do not place your leaves in the roadway, obstruct any rights-of-way, or on the sidewalk — they blow around, become slip hazards when wet, and can clog storm drains and cause flooding. 
• Do not block drains or pile around fire hydrants. (International Fire Code Fire Protection Water Supplies: Section 508.5.4, Section 508.5.5)
• Do not park on piles of leaves.
• We will pick up bagged leaves in compostable bags only.
• We will not pick up leaves in plastic bags.
• Avoid on-street parking on the daily scheduled pick-up side of the street. 
• NOTE that rain or snow may alter the pick-up schedule.
