Now that everyone has enjoyed the color of the leaves this fall. We’re entering prime leaf season where the work begins. In other words, it’s cleanup time.
It’s also the time of year when the question I’m most frequently asked is, “When will my leaves be picked up?”
Well, I (mostly) have an answer.
As in years past, Mauldin’s Public Works department divided the city in to four equally volume-balanced Leaf Collection Zones for the 2018-2019 leaf collection season, so here is a quick guide to help you know when to expect to see the city’s leaf trucks on your street.
Public Works staff will alternate working in each Zone for one scheduled week. If collection takes less than one week within the scheduled Zone, staff will fall back to the previous Zone and perform leaf collection operations through that week. Once the previous week’s Zone has been collected, PW staff will advance Zone-by-Zone throughout the City, as time permits. This program will allow, at a minimum, one collection per month per residence.
Please understand that there are sometimes situations over which the city has no control, but we work to the best of our ability to adapt to them and move forward.
If your neighborhood isn’t listed but you want to know what zone you’re in, email the Public Works department at mauldinpublicworks@mauldincitysc.com. They’ll let you know where you are.
