Keep Leaves out of the Storm Drains

The leaves are beautiful, but they can pile up fast! Please remember that leaves cannot be swept into the street. They can block storm drains and cause serious backups when it rains. Be sure to dispose of all yard waste through LRS or leave the leaves in your garden to protect plants and improve the soil as they decompose. Check out Darien's New Leaf Campaign for more tips! Follow these guidelines from LRS to properly dispose of your yard waste.
