How the Program Works
The City of Midland's Fall Leaf Collection program begins when a significant amount of leaves have fallen throughout the city. The actual start date is based on weather conditions that promote leaf fall. A collection schedule using the Heavy Item and Brush Collection areas is used to determine where crews are collecting: Crews begin in Area B, then proceed to areas C, D, and A.Not sure what area you're in?

During fall leaf collection, residents rake leaves into the street, leaving at least one foot of gutter space between the leaf pile and the curb. Do not mix brush or refuse in with the leaf piles. Crews will complete at least two rounds of collection in all areas, weather permitting. Any leaves that have not been collected after the final round, must be bagged in paper compost bags or placed in the blue yard waste bin.
