City Of La Vergne: La Vergne Prepares For First Leaf Litter Collection

Press release from the City of La Vergne:

September 27, 2021

The La Vergne Stormwater Department is preparing for its first-ever round of leaf litter collection this fall. Staff estimates the leaf litter collection truck will begin making its rounds October 25 and complete its designated routes by November 30.

The leaf litter collection truck will make one round of collection throughout the city, starting in the western portion of La Vergne and ending in the eastern portion. The truck will only make one route through every residential street in La Vergne and will not return for leaves not in place or additional piles.

Residents should pile their leaves out by the road in front of the front yard before the start date of October 25 to make sure their leaves will be picked up. Staff will have a pre-written route that they will follow but due to potential volume and weather these routes are not assigned specific dates.

There are some things that staff want residents to keep in mind while raking their leaves for collection:

Anyone with questions is encouraged to contact Stormwater Coordinator Alexandra Thompson at athompson@lavergnetn.gov.
