Next Week is Final Week of Village's Loose Leaf Pickup Program

The village's Loose Leaf Pickup Program's final week begins Monday.

Village crews will travel throughout Lisle to collect leaves from residences in Lisle's corporate limits.

Homeowners should adhere to the following guidelines when preparing their leaves:

• All leaves must be placed in the front parkway by 7 a.m. Monday morning.
• Leaves shall be loose, not bagged, and placed as close to the edge of the street as possible.
• Leaves shall not be placed on sidewalks or in ditches. Where sidewalks abut the curb, the leaves shall be placed off of the sidewalk and as close to the street as possible. 
• No other materials shall be placed in the leaf pile, including grass, branches, landscape waste, etc.
• Please do not park cars in front of leaf piles.  If crews can not get to the leaf piles they will not be picked up.

After the week of Nov. 12, the village's waste hauler will pick up yard waste bags, but a "yard waste sticker" must be affixed to each bag. Do not rake leaves to the curb during this time. There will not be a free pick up after the week of Nov. 12. The waste hauler will continue to pick up tagged yard waste bags through the second Tuesday of December.
