Fort Wayne Public Works news release:<\/p>\n

First Pass of Leaf Collection Wrapping Up This Week<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

(November 30, 2020) \u2013 Due to the unusual volume of leaves that fell during a very short amount of time this year, leaf collection has been delayed slightly. By adding weekends and holidays to the schedule, crews will finish the first pass by the end of this week and then begin their second pass, planning to wrap up by December 18 as originally scheduled. <\/p>\n

Leaf collection schedule updates are provided daily before 3:00 p.m. at cityoffortwayne.org\/leaves<\/a>. The daily updates include what neighborhoods the crews will be working in the following day. A collection map and guidelines for the process are also located on the web page. Additionally, residents have the option to call 260-427-2603 to hear recorded daily updates. <\/p>\n

Residents are asked to rake leaves to the curb or park strip in front of their home, but not in the street. Leaves should be in the pick-up area by Monday at 7:00 a.m. on the collection week. <\/p>\n
