TROY — The city of Troy is set to begin the final round of Troy’s annual leaf pick-up program on Wednesday, Dec. 13.
A map showing anticipated pick-up dates by address is available at the city website at www.troyohio.gov/leaf-map. Click on your zone to see anticipated pick-up dates.
To help provide efficient collection, the city asks that residents:
• Keep leaf piles free of routine yard waste, trash, brush, and rocks.
• Rake leaves to the street one foot out from the curb and out of catch basins. Leaving this space between the curb and the leaves will allow drainage of rainwater. Do not block catch basins with piles of leaves.
• Do not place leaf piles around or between parked cars.
• Place leaves at the curb before the first collection date for your zone.
Residents can also place leaves in a compostable paper yard waste bag curbside on their regular trash collection day.
As in the past, leaf pick-up will be by zones. The description of the zones and dates for each are as follows:
