WARSAW — The Department of Public Works has scheduled a one week spring leaf pick-up program to coincide with Earth Day. During the week of April 18, large piles of leaves can be raked to the curb or alley. They will be picked up on your regular trash day and need to be out by 7 a.m. Do not put sticks or other trash in the leaf piles. Small piles will need to be bagged or boxed and will be picked up on your regular trash day.

As a reminder, leaves cannot be raked into the streets and gutter lines. This clogs the stormwater catch basins and creates drainage issues that can lead to flooding.
