Livermore Keeps On Sweeping

The City of Livermore maintains a street sweeping program to comply with provisions of the federally mandated Clean Water Act. Street sweeping helps to remove pollutants which potentially can drain into the City's arroyos and into San Francisco Bay.

To improve effectiveness of the Street Sweeping Program, the City staff asks that you park your cars off the street on your scheduled sweeping day. Sweeping around parked cars requires more time and is a dangerous maneuver. Moving your cars will allow the sweeper to do a better job for you and your neighbors.

Leaf Removal Season

Depending on weather, the City of Livermore's Leaf Pick-Up program starts the week after Thanksgiving and ends by mid-February. The leaves are picked up one day before the regularly scheduled street sweeping day or on the same day of the regularly scheduled sweeping day, depending on workload.

If the street is scheduled to be swept on Thursday, the leaves will be picked up on Wednesday or Thursday. If scheduled on Monday, the leaves will be picked up on the previous Friday or Monday.

If your street sweeping day falls on a City holiday, the leaves are picked up the following week. For instance, if Thursday is your street sweeping day and it falls on a City holiday, your leaves are picked up the following Wednesday or Thursday. If scheduled on Monday and it falls on a City holiday, your leaves are picked up on the Friday week of the holiday or the following Monday.

If the scheduled pick-up day is not sufficient, residents can also put the leaves in bags and call (925) 960-8020 or submit a request online at City of Livermore (311service.com). The bags will be picked up within one to two business days. Please note that the bags must contain leaves only. City staff will not pick up bags that contain other items or materials.
