Public Works collects leaves by vacuum from November through early January. Residents should rake their leaves up to the curb line for collection. Do not rake leaves into the gutters or street. Please keep leaf piles free of sticks, stones and other debris, as they can damage the vacuum equipment.
If you choose to bag your leaves, place the bags at the curb the evening before collection in a bin or brown paper bag as plastic bags are prohibited.
Please email Public Works Director, Mickey Beall at mbeall@upmd.org if you have any questions.
