London Offers Curbside Pickup and Drop-Off Options for Fall Leaves

By Ciera Bierbaugh Madison Messenger As autumn leaves continue to fall, the City of London is reminding residents of two available options for disposing of yard leaves. According to Mayor Patrick Closser’s November 5 update, residents may arrange for curbside collection or bring their bagged leaves to a designated city drop-off location. For curbside pickup, residents must place leaves in biodegradable paper bags and set them along the street where their trash containers are normally collected. Unlike regular trash collection, leaf pickup must be scheduled in advance by calling the city at 740-852-3243. Residents who prefer to transport their leaves can use the former Sanitation Department site at 233 Jenkinson Avenue. Regular drop-off hours are Fridays from noon to 3:30 p.m. Additional Saturday collection hours will be offered November 21 and November 28, from 8 a.m. until noon. The leaf disposal service is available exclusively to London residents.
