City of Rochester
News Release
(Friday, Nov. 22, 2019) – Fall leaf collection will resume
next week, weather permitting. Leaf collection was delayed this year because of
the early snowfall.
Residents of Northeast Rochester as well as those living in
the Lyell-Otis-Avery and Edgerton neighborhoods between Lyell and Lexington
avenues are asked to rake loose leaves into a pile between the sidewalk and the
curb by 7 a.m. Monday, Nov. 25. (Week 2 residents designated in green on the
City’s loose leaf collection map.)
Once this area is complete, leaf collection will continue in
the Maplewood and Charlotte neighborhoods as well as most of Southeast
Rochester, including the Beechwood and Culver-Merchants neighborhoods. (Week 3
residents, designated in blue on the map.)
The complete leaf collection schedule and a map of the areas
to be collected can be found at: www.cityofrochester.gov/leaves
Leaves may also be bagged for collection on residents’
regular refuse collection days. Loose leaves can also be dropped off at Ferrano
and Colfax Streets.
Residents may call 311 for more information.
