Fall Leaf Pick Up

When & where

About this event

Lakeside will provide free Fall Leaf Pick Up Oct. 26-Dec. 11, 2026. This year's schedule gives the Maintenance Department more flexibility to coordinate with the ongoing Streets Project. The goal is to complete Leaf Pick Up in each area by mid-week, leaving Thursday and Friday for work in the parks and other Lakeside properties, weather permitting. Thank you for helping keep Lakeside a beautiful community. Guidelines for Safe & Efficient Pick Up Place leaves in long, narrow piles along the edge of the road, ideally extending about one foot into the street. Leaves left in the yard or gravel cannot be collected, as they are unreachable and gravel damages the machinery. Have piles ready by 8 a.m. Monday of your scheduled week. Keep sticks separate from leaf piles. Sticks clog the intake hose and damage the equipment. Place bush trimmings, annuals, ivy, perennials, walnuts, acorns and potted plants (such as fern baskets) in brown lawn refuse bags for regular trash pickup on Tuesdays. Bags are available at the Administration Office for $5 per pack of five. Leaves may also be bagged for regular trash pickup on Tuesdays. Leaf piles must contain leaves only. Large branches, walnuts, acorns, and other yard waste will cause your pile to be skipped, as these items slow down pickup and damage machinery.
