Jasper Street Department Set to Begin Bulk-Leaf Collection Next Week

CITY PRESS RELEASE

JASPER -- The Jasper Street Department will begin street-side bulk leaf collection on Monday, Oct. 26.

The Street Department reminds residents to keep the leaf piles close (not in) to the road/curb. Putting your leaves IN the roadway/curb, prevents water from draining to the inlets, thus causing water to set in the streets.

Leaves must be raked & available for pickup no later than 7:00 a.m.

Please DO NOT rake twigs, trash, rocks nor any other debris within the leaf pile, as these items damage the vacuum machines.

There will be no set day as to when your leaves will be picked up, the collection workers will make their way around the City on a daily basis.
