Leaf pick-up program starts Monday

The City of Turlock will begin its annual Leaf Pickup Program on Monday and end it on Feb. 7, 2025. Residents are strongly encouraged to use their green waste containers first for leaves. If all leaves do not fit in the green container, they may be placed in loose piles on the street, 18 inches from the curbside. Do not put leaves in bags.

Tips for a Successful Leaf Pickup:

Leaves Only: Ensure your piles contain only leaves. Piles mixed with wood or branches will not be collected.

Parking: Avoid parking vehicles in front of your residence in a way that obstructs leaf collection. This includes the day before, the day of, and the day after your scheduled pickup.

Trash Day: If your leaf pickup coincides with your trash collection day, keep your bins and leaf piles separate for easy access.

Gutters: Place your leaf piles 18 inches from the curb to help prevent street flooding during rain.

The City is divided into 12 zones for leaf collection, with Fridays reserved for maintenance. Leaf collection will follow the scheduled days for each zone.
