City crews will start residential curbside leaf collection on Monday.
Vacuum trucks will visit each city neighborhood three times during the season on a set rotating schedule.
Residents should pile unbagged leaves as close to the curbside or street as possible without blocking travel lanes for pedestrians, cyclists or vehicles.
On-street parking areas can be used for leaves.
Trucks will only collect loose leaves, not bagged. Drop-off locations will be available on Saturdays.
Leaves are brought to a local farm for composting.
Residents can sign up for text alerts to remind them of their collection week. To sign up, text your address to (434) 771-0251.
