Indianapolis Leaf Collection Season 2023

How to dispose of leaves.  How many bags and between what dates?

During leaf collection season, you can dispose of 40 bags of leaves each week with your regular trash. The 2023 collection season will run from Monday, November 6 through Friday, December 1.

Place leaves in large plastic trash bags, and place the bags on the street by 7 a.m. on your collection day. Residents should refrain from using paper bags as they deteriorate and fall apart in wet weather. Keep the leaf bags 3-5 feet away from your cart collection area and out of sidewalks and public rights-of-way.

Never rake leaves into the street. Leaf season is a great time to clear your nearby storm drain inlets and keep them maintained to prevent drainage and flooding problems.

Burning leaves is illegal in Marion County as it releases harmful particles into our air. Illegal burning may result in fines of up to $2,500.
