The city is rolling out its annual fall leaf collection effort very soon. Like last year, the collecting will occur in stages, depending on your location. So please read on!
Georgetown is split into two zones for these purposes: 2C and 2D. The letters are all that actually matter. So basically if you live east of Wisconsin, you’re in group C and if you live west of Wisconsin, you’re in group D.
The way it will work is that when you’re time comes, you are instructed to gather all the leaves that you want collected (including leaves from street trees) into the tree boxes on your block. If there are no tree boxes by your house, just rake them into a pile by the curb. You do not need to bag the leaves.
To avoid people gathering the leaves too early and them simply blowing or washing away, the city is not publishing a pick up schedule ahead of time. You will be alerted with a door hanger and online two weeks ahead of the pick up time. (I’ll also try to give you a heads up). You will be given a date at which point the leaves should be gathered. For what it’s worth, the city is starting with group A at the end of October.
There is a map to track the progress here.
