City of Wheaton Leaf Collection RemindersThis fall, the City of Wheaton reminds you of the ways you can properly dispose of leaves. - Place leaves in containers 35 gallons in size or smaller, or in biodegradable bags.
- Containers or bags must weigh less than 50 pounds when filled.
- Each container or bag requires an LRS yard waste/ organics/excess garbage sticker, available at City Hall and at many local grocery and hardware stores for $3.49 each.
- When you’re cleaning up leaves, please be careful not to blow or rake them into the streets. Doing so can prevent storm sewers from functioning properly and can lead to flooding. If your house is located near a storm sewer catch basin, please help keep it clear by sweeping away leaves and debris from the sewer grate.
- Burning leaves is not allowed.
LRS collects yard waste, food scraps and organic materials through the week of Dec. 9 on your pickup day. |
