Leaf collection will begin next week, in Groveport, but it's best to rake your leaves into your garden. Fireflies, bumblebees, and other beneficial pollinators overwinter in leaf litter. More good bugs mean fewer pest bugs in your garden. And the leaves break down into organic matter that improves your soil.
The Groveport Public Service Department will begin daily curbside leaf collection within city limits on Monday, October 12. Collection will continue through December 11, weather permitting.
π Please keep these tips in mind:
π Rake leaves near the curb, but not into the street. Leaves can obstruct water flow and storm sewers. Alternatively, bag leaves in biodegradable bags for pickup by Local Waste on Mondays.
π« Keep leaf piles away from mailboxes, trees, streetlights, fire hydrants and signs.
π Leaves only, please. Branches, twigs, flowers, grass clippings, rocks and trash will not be collected.
π Avoid parking vehicles in front of or behind leaf piles. Leaves underneath or around parked vehicles cannot be collected.
β° Please have leaves raked curbside by 8 a.m.
