Do Don’t
Place leaves in the
street instead of at
the curb or in the
tree box as this is a
re hazard and can
create trac and
parking issues.
Sweep leaves, litter, or
other debris into gutter
or catch basins (storm
drains). Clogged
catch basins can
cause street ooding
during heavy rains
and further contribute
to water pollution.
Rake leaves into tree boxes
or to the curb after your
scheduled collection.
Place tree limbs,
bricks, dirt, rocks, etc.
into tree boxes or at
the curb for collection.
Place only piles
of leaves in tree
boxes or at the curb
for collection.

overgrowth from your alley,
and other yard debris from
your private landscaper
