DPW Announces Fall Leaf Collection Schedule

The Department of Public Works will begin curbside leaf collection on Monday, November 7.  All leaves must be placed in biodegradable paper bags safely near the curb of a Town street by December 5 to guarantee pick-up. Residents living on private streets must place their leaves behind the curb of an intersecting Town roadway. Leaves placed in plastic bags will not be picked up as the composting process cannot handle plastic. 

There is no need to call and schedule a pick-up, as our crews will complete pick-ups as their schedules allow. For further information, contact the Department of Public Works office at 203-341-1120 or visit the Department of Public Works webpage at www.westportct.gov
