Spring Leaf Collection
 
Curbside windrows of leaves and yard waste will be collected in April, weather permitting.  City residents may otherwise drop off grass clippings, leaves, plants, brush, branches, limbs (up to 4” in diameter), wood chips, sawdust, holiday trees, stumps (clean) and clean wood (not painted or treated) at the MRD compost site, 5211 CTH Q, seasonally from April 1 through November 30.
 
Please see our Leaf and Yard Waste Collection Policy (rev. 2014) for a complete description of rules and alternative options, and check the City’s Leaves and Garden Waste web page for weekly progress updates.
 
Your cooperation in making leaf and yard waste collection efficient is both needed and appreciated.  Please follow these Leaf Collection Rules:

• Pile leaves on grass areas along the curb, but not in the street or gutter.
• Do not pile leaves around trees, posts, hydrants, mailboxes, rocks, firewood or brush.
• Leaves in bags or containers WILL NOT be collected.
• Leaves mixed with brush WILL NOT be collected.
