We would like to remind all residents not to put piles of leaves in the street, but instead use your Organics Cart to dispose of the leaf piles. Leaf piles can cause street flooding and create hazardous road obstructions.

The City of West Sacramento has these few recommendations to help dispose of those extra leaves:

• Place leaves in your organics cart.
• Leaves that are in your organic carts are not to be bagged.
• During leaf drop season (November 1st to January 31st) extra leaves may be placed next to your full organics cart in bags weighing no more than 50 pounds each.

Please do not place piles of leaves in front of your house on the street. They won’t be picked up. We appreciate everyone’s effort to help address this matter.
