Curbside Leaf Collection

October 6 - December 5.  Weather permitting, leaves may be raked to the curb rather than bagged.

Fall Leaf Disposal

Dispose of fall leaves in any of these ways:

1. Compost on your property with your other yard-waste compost.
2. Rake to the curb from mid-October through early-December, weather permitting.
3. Place in a reusable container bearing the Ferndale Yard Waste Compost label or use the paper KRAFT bags (available at local hardware stores) and place at the curb between mid-April and early December.
4. Between early December and mid-April, put in a 30-gallon bin or paper Kraft bag and drop off at SOCRRA’s Troy transfer station on Coolidge (248) 288-5150 free or store it until the city’s yard waste collection begins mid-April.
