Leaves, grass and weeds

Leaf clearance

Dedicated teams will sweep paths and streets to remove leaves from the public highway from early October until the end of January each year.

Teams will return to each area of the borough until it is tidy and presentable. On average, teams will visit each area at least twice and stay for about four to five days.

Leaves from private gardens

Do not sweep leaves and other natural debris from your garden or driveway onto the street, as we may treat this as a littering or fly-tipping offence. Please put leaves from your garden in your garden waste bin.
