As the weather changes and leaves begin to fall, one of the most common questions is: “When will leaf removal take place?”
The HOA schedules two leaf removals per year, typically:
• Second week of November
• Second week of December
Leaf removal is highly dependent on weather conditions—past, present, and forecasted. Rain, wind, and the rate of leaf drop all affect scheduling, making exact dates difficult to predict in advance.
Landscaping crews generally plan work on a week-to-week basis depending on conditions across all communities they service. While they can often provide a rough timeframe, schedules may shift due to changing conditions.
What to Expect During Leaf Removal:
Leaf removal is the most intensive service performed throughout the year. Blowing leaves can create dust and debris that may settle on vehicles.
Crews make every effort to minimize impact and will blow around and between parked vehicles. However, residents who are concerned about their vehicles may wish to move them during service.
Leaves are typically blown into piles along the edges of streets and drive lanes (without blocking access), and then removed by vacuum truck.
At times, leaf removal from turf areas may be complete while piles remain temporarily on islands or along road edges. This occurs when trucks must leave to empty full loads and will return to complete collection—sometimes later the same day or evening.
Safety Reminder:
Please use caution when walking or driving near landscaping equipment. Children should be kept away from trucks, equipment, and leaf piles at all times.
