Dear Leaf Area 6 Resident,
Fall is here, this means that vacuum leaf collection is also here!
Leaf Area 6 will receive the first round of vacuum leaf collection beginning on November 10, 2025.
We encourage you to visit the Fairfax County leaf collection website for additional information, updates on collection dates, collection area maps, and frequently asked questions. You can access the website at www.fairfaxcounty.gov/leaf or simply scan the QR code.
Things to remember to ensure your leaves are collected:
- Make sure your leaves are raked or blown within four feet of the edge of the street prior to your scheduled collection date (In case of severe weather, collection dates may be adjusted).
- Vacuum Leaf Collection is for leaves only.
- Leaves mixed with brush, rocks, tree trimmings, sticks, trash, soil, and other unacceptable materials cannot be vacuumed. Remove all debris from leaves prior to set out.
- Do not block streets or pile leaves in storm drains or drainage ditches.
- Do not block leaf piles with cars or any type of equipment (at least 2 feet of clearance on each side of the pile is needed). This could limit accessibility to the leaves or create hazardous conditions.
- Do not park vehicles on piles of leaves. This is a fire hazard.
-
Leaves raked out after the third pickup will not be collected. Place leaves in private rigid containers or compostable paper yard bags. No more than 10 bags, please.
- Yard waste season ends December 24, 2025. If your service is provided by a private hauler, please contact your hauler.
- Report service issues by calling Customer Service 703-802-3322 or email dpwestrashcs@fairfaxcounty.gov.
We appreciate your patience and will do our best to keep you informed about changes in the vacuum leaf collection schedule.
Thank you.
