If your leaves are not in the correct bag or container, they will not be picked up. You will be notified, though, and you'll have the chance to put them in proper bags and they will be picked up the following week. You can call Republic Services at 812-424-3345 if you have any questions.

What About My Heavy Trash?

Heavy trash pickups will be put on hold during the Fall Leaf Collection Program. You can resume scheduling heavy trash pickups once the Leaf Collection Program ends on Tuesday, December 14, 2021.
