Raleigh residents, it’s time to prep your rakes and get ready for the city’s seasonal loose leaf collection. Starting November 12, the City of Raleigh invites locals to neatly pile their fallen leaves near the curb for the city’s pick-up service. In a statement obtained by the City of Raleigh’s official news page, residents are urged to “keep them out of the street” to aid in the collection efforts. The city has been divided into 12 zones, with collection beginning in Zone 5 and continuing through the other areas as weather and equipment permit.
Just a heads up, leaf collection in Raleigh is subject to change due to weather conditions. The collection is known to quickly adjust to the weather dance, with cold and wet conditions potentially slowing down the process, especially if snow and ice come into play. While teams from the Raleigh Transportation are prepared to tackle your leaf piles, be sure to check the collection schedule or use the interactive map to find the optimal days to place your leaves out.
The city assures residents that they will be kept in the loop if the scheduled collections need to be paused. Such pauses may occur due to unforeseen weather events, which can disrupt the timing of the services. Dedicated city staff will be monitoring forecasts constantly to ensure that collections can proceed safely and effectively.
Raleigh’s Transportation teams are equipped with industrial vacuums to efficiently gather up the leaf piles. Remember to minimize any weather-related delays by staying informed about potential changes to the pickup schedule which the city will promptly provide updates on.
