City of Akron Street Cleaning Division

(12-29-2009) - Update: Outstanding collections reported to the 3-1-1 call center will continue to be resolved as weather permits. Residents can still bag any uncollected leaves and request bulk pickup through the 3-1-1 center.

Questions or concerns, dial 3-1-1 (or 330-375-2311 from cell phone).

The following is the anticipated 2009 schedule. Note that this is only a target at this point. It will change due to when leaves drop and as weather requires. The City of Akron will keep citizens informed as we modify our schedule.
