• All streets south of Olive and north of Old Bonhomme, including the north side of Old Bonhomme. Excludes streets off of  Warson, South of Olive.

SECTION 3:

Guidelines: 

• All piles must be out before 8:00 a.m. of the scheduled start date. Any piles put out after the vacuum has passed on a side will not be picked up until the next scheduled date.
• Residents who choose to place their leaves at the curb before the collection dates are asked to maintain the piles as close to the curb as possible. 
• Republic Services will continue to provide weekly yard waste removal. Leaves and other loose yard waste should be placed in containers or paper bags at the curb before 6:00 AM. on Wednesday of each week. Be sure to check the list of approved containers by reviewing the Refuse Collection Guide. 
• Every attempt will be made to maintain the schedule, but residents should be prepared for delays due to inclement weather. If leaves are put out after the final scheduled pass you can pay for a late pickup by contacting Hendel Lawncare at (314) 863-1420.

Reminders:

• Each section may be completed in one day or could take up to one week (7 days) per pass to complete depending on weather conditions and volume.
• Dates may change, or take longer to complete due to the weather conditions.
• The leaf vacuuming process will create dust and a small amount of leaf debris. The City and Hendel Lawncare are not responsible for dust on vehicles or other items of personal property.
• For fire and life safety issues, DO NOT pile leaves protruding into the street or on sidewalks. Leaves must be placed on the lawn side of the street and not onto the street. Leaves should be in open areas, and not under bushes, trees, or mailboxes to allow equipment access.
• Piles blocked with parked cars will not be picked up.
• Please remove rocks, bricks, glass, branches, and any other hard materials from your leaf piles. Leaves are collected with a special vacuum designed for leaves only. Other materials can damage equipment and/or cause injury to crew members if mixed in with leaves. Leaves mixed with other materials will NOT be collected.
• Spring leaf collection will be performed by the Wednesday yard waste collection service.

• Please do not wait until the final pass to place leaves out for collection.
