Bag Your Leaves

the refuse and recycling carts in the alley or at the curb.
A Streets and Sanitation truck will collect the bags based on 311 requests and
take them to be composted.
As a reminder, yard waste should not be thrown into the blue recycling cart as it contaminates the recycling stream.
