CITY OF MILAN LEAF COLLECTION SEASON
Milan Public Works will begin leaf collection on November 2, 2026, with the season running through February 5, 2027.
To help our crews provide safe and efficient service, please follow these guidelines:
Leaf Placement
• Place leaves within 3 feet of the street edge in a continuous row.
• Do not place leaves in the street or in drainage ditches.
• Keep leaves away from mailboxes, meter lids, utility lines, poles, and other structures.
• Do not mix limbs, trash, or other debris with leaves. Foreign material can damage our equipment. Leaf piles containing other debris will not be collected.
Collection Schedule
• Milan Public Works will make multiple passes throughout the city during leaf season. Because collection times depend on weather conditions and the volume of leaves, we cannot predict exactly when crews will reach a particular street.
• During peak season, it may take several days to complete a full rotation through the city. We appreciate your patience and ask residents to watch for when their leaves are collected and prepare their next pile accordingly.
End-of-Season Reminder
• Please have your final leaves ready for collection no later than the last week of January to help ensure they are collected during the final rotation.
• After February 5, 2027, ALL leaves and loose yard clippings must be bagged for collection.
• We ask residents to please refrain from requesting additional or special leaf pickups before the end of leaf season. Following these guidelines will help our crews provide safe, efficient service throughout the community.
