The City of Terre Haute will begin leaf pick up Tuesday, Nov, 12.

Crews will be working in the area from Wabash Avenue to Eighth Avenue and from First Street to Fruitridge Avenue. 

Please have your leaves raked into a pile in the tree row and NOT in the street. Keeping the large piles in the tree row helps keep the storm sewers from becoming easily plugged which then leads to street flooding. 

Note: We work hard to stay on the advertised schedule, but heavy rain, snow or freezing temperatures can make it difficult to vacuum the leaves so we sometimes run a few days behind.     

The next pickup area will be announced next week. Residents can also find an up-to-date schedule on our website at www.terrehaute.in.gov or by checking the city's Facebook page.
