COLUMBIA, S.C. — If you're taking advantage of the weather to get some yard work done, the City of Columbia has some news for you.
The city's Solid Waste Division is adding a new leaf collection option for residents to drop off their bagged leaves at designated containers throughout the city. It is the City's effort to keep neighborhoods neat and tidy and leaves from blocking street drains.
Columbia residents can drop off leaves at marked bins at the following locations from January 6 through January 12:
- Drew Park, 2101 Walker Solomon Way
- Busby Street, 1735 Busby St.
- Columbia Tennis Center, 1635 Whaley St.
- Owens Field, 1351 Jim Hamilton Blvd.
- Woodland Park, 6500 Olde Knight Pkwy.
The weather forecast for the next few days does have rain on Wednesday, Jan. 4, but clear and sunny with highs in the mid-50s through the beginning of next week. Perfect for raking leaves.
