Leaf Cleanup and Street Sweeping
Use the web links at the bottom of this page for more information on leaf cleanup.
The City of West Linn asks that homeowners do not place leaves from their yards into the street.
Leaf Cleanup Responsibilities:
CITY OF WEST LINN:
Any leaves that fall naturally into the street are the responsibility of the City and will be picked up during the regular street sweeping schedule (see web link below). In addition, the City is asking citizens if they see leaves blocking street storm drains or along the street curb-lines to move the leaves up onto the curb. This is especially important during heavy rains to prevent street drainage back-ups and flooding. Use the web link provided below to contact the City.
OREGON DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION:
Leaves that fall along Interstate-205 and Willamette Drive (Hwy 43) are the responsibility of ODOT. You may log your requests with ODOT using the web link provided below.
CITIZENS AND PROPERTY OWNERS:
Leaves that fall into yards are the property owner’s responsibility. Leaves can be discarded in regular yard debris cans. If you prefer to bag your yard debris before placing it in your can, or have more than will fit, be sure to use a biodegradable paper bag. These paper bags can be found at most grocery and hardware stores, and will be picked up by West Linn Refuse & Recycling for a nominal fee. Please contact West Linn Refuse for more information on leaf pickup.
Bagged leaves and yard debris may also be disposed of at the following locations:
- Metro South Transfer Station - 2001 Washington St., Oregon City, 503.234.3000
- S & H Landscaping Supplies - 20200 SW Stafford Road, Tualatin, 503.6381011
You can also find other yard debris recycling centers here.
STREET SWEEPING: One half of the streets located within the city are swept each month, with each half alternating from month to month. Sweeping generally starts the third week of the month. This schedule is flexible depending on weather and other issues which may arise. Please click the link below for more information including maps of street sweeping areas.
