Yard Waste Collection to Resume on Monday, April 5, 2021
Leesburg residents will have yard waste collected every Monday through
November.
Leesburg, VA (March 22, 2021) – Beginning Monday,
April 5, 2021, Patriot Disposal Services will begin to
collect yard waste every Monday for those living
within the corporate limits of the Town of Leesburg.
Please note, this service could be suspended, if
needed, due to staffing of our haulers and
Coronavirus updates. People should keep an eye on
social media and the Town’s website,
www.leesburgva.gov, in case we would have to
suspend this service.
A maximum of 10 biodegradable paper bags (or 10 properly marked trash cans) will be picked
up at each residents home per week. No exceptions.
Yard waste is limited to grass clippings, leaves, weeds and small twigs and must be placed at the
curb by 6:00 a.m. on the day of collection. Yard waste must be in biodegradable paper bags or
in cans clearly marked as yard waste. The Town of Leesburg will provide residents with free
“Yard Waste” stickers for this purpose. Residents can request stickers by calling 703 -771-2790
or emailing trash@leesburgva.gov.
Residents are being asked to mulch their grass clippings into their yards to minimize the yard
waste volume. The following additional restrictions apply to yard waste:
No plastic bags or boxes.
Do not mix yard waste with trash or recycling.
No dirt, mulch, root balls, rocks or sod.
