MILWAUKEE — The Department of Public Works is offering a spring leaf cleanup after early snowfall and freezing temperatures interrupted collection last fall.
DPW says residents have until February 15 to rake their leaves into the street, leaving a one-foot gap from the curb.
Final leaf collection will begin on Monday, March 16, with no service request required for any leaves in the street.
Additionally, residents who prefer to bag their leaves in compostable lawn bags can have them collected during this time.
For the first time outside of Project Clean & Green, residents who prefer to bag their leaves in compostable paper lawn bags may do so, and DPW will collect them curbside during this time.
