Annual Citywide Fall Leaf Pickup Begins Nov. 21
OAK RIDGE, Tenn. (October 31, 2022) — The annual citywide leaf pickup program begins Monday, November 21, 2022, and is coordinated by Waste Connections of Tennessee. Collection efforts will follow the proposed schedule as closely as possible. Please note that the proposed schedule is a general guide and can vary considerably from the actual schedule due to weather conditions, resident participation, and the amount of leaves needed to be picked up.
The following guidelines will help make the leaf pick-up process easier for Waste Connections crews and homeowners:
At the completion of the day, a final drive through of each daily specified route will be done to verify and ensure that all leaves are collected during that time. Please be advised that delays may occur due to unforeseen weather conditions and level of resident participation. We appreciate resident patience should your leaves not be picked up on your specified day. Streets will be swept approximately two weeks after leaves are picked up in each designated area.
Residents can now sign up for weekly email reminders of the pickup schedules. The schedules for household trash, leaf, and brush pickups will be emailed upon publication and weekly as crews may get ahead or behind schedule. To sign up, visit OakRidgeTN.gov and select the dropdown for ‘NEWS’ and then select ‘Sign Up For Pickup Reminders' or scan this QR code with your phone camera:
