The Village's Annual leaf collection program will begin the week of October 18 and end November 24. In order to assure that leaves are collected by November 24 end date, they must be raked to the curb for collection by November 19. Leaves raked to the curb later than November 19, may not be collected.
Please keep in mind, leaves should be raked to the curb or the edge of the street, not into the street or over storm water inlets. If possible, leaf piles should be a maximum of 5 feet wide. If the leaf piles are larger, the vacuum will not reach the entire pile and the leaves will have to be re-raked closer to the edge of the street. Parked cars must be parked at least 20 feet, away from the leaf pile in order for the truck to access the leaf pile. If on street parking is hindering collection of your leaves, please contact Brian Farley at the Village Hall, 614-379-5247 for assistance.
Sticks, tree branches and grass clippings must be removed from the leaf piles as the debris will clog the vacuum hose and slow the collection. Leaf collection crews will have a truck working on a daily basis. The speed of collection program depends greatly on the weather-rain and snow slow collection. Please try to get your leaves out as soon as possible and be sure to not wait until the end of the collection program.
On a daily basis, the leaf collection crew will report to the village the general location of where they will be collecting, and daily progress.
Thank you for cooperation,
