Arlington County Leaf Collection - November 2025

Arlington collects about 50,000 cubic yards of leaves every year. Months ahead, staff analyzes historic data, tree types and density, weather forecasts, state forestry forecasts and resident feedback to develop the leaf collection schedule. Look for neighborhood signs posted three to seven days before each pass by civic association. The first pass is in Waverly Hills in November is scheduled for November 11-14; the second pass in Waverly Hills in December is scheduled for December 1-4. Note: The date on the sign marks the beginning of the leaf collection window. Leaves may not actually be collected on that date, but should be left at the curb from that date until they are collected. More information can be found on the county leaf collection website.
