During the vacuum dates, residents are reminded to rake leaves into a pile between the sidewalks and the curb/shoulder of the road and not to rake them into the streets and/or ditches. Bulky material such as brush and tree limbs should not be mixed in with the leaves.
Residents who miss their scheduled vacuum dates should bag their leaves. Meridian Waste Tri-City MRF will pick up 60 bags of leaves on your assigned trash day. The bags must be tied and placed on the curb. For additional information regarding bagged leaves, please contact Meridian Waste Tri-City MRF at (804) 425-0500.
Vacuum leaf collection services will be offered to residents who miss their assigned leaf collection time frame or do not bag their leaves for a FEE OF $75 PER LOAD. For information about this service, please call Street Operations at (804) 733-2415.
*NOTE – Inclement weather, heavy rainfall and equipment failure may delay or alter published schedules. Leaves will not be collected from residents’ property.
