New Albany, IN is proud to present its 2023 Leaf Collection Program, featuring an interactive map that allows residents to track the progress of leaf collection across the city's 9 zones. The program runs from October 2 to December 1, with crews starting in Zone 1 and moving through the city in sequential order. Residents are advised to have their leaves raked to the back of the curb by the Monday of their scheduled zone week. Guidelines include avoiding placing leaf piles near mailboxes, trees, lights, signs, or shared public areas, and not placing leaves in the street or public island areas. Leaves can be collected during scheduled yard waste collection dates or dropped off at the public service facility.
In case of missed collection, residents are requested to wait until the next weekly collection pass as a courtesy to other neighborhoods. The leaf collection program is intended only for leaves that have been properly bunched and placed at the curb within the right-of-way for disposal. Alternate disposal options include dropping off leaves at the public service facility or utilizing the weekly Rumpke yard waste collection service. Residents can also choose to mulch leaves back into the lawn or use them as insulation for plant beds and trees. Weather conditions may impact the collection schedule, and leaves will not be collected from private streets, open spaces, or business park areas.
