Leaf chutes slide inside yard waste bags to make them easier to fill. It can serve as a funnel if you leave the bag standing or a leaf dustpan if you lay it on its side. LFUCG has ordered 5,000 of these for distribution to residents with city waste service.
Chutes are available at the city's Electronics Recycling Center at 1306 Versailles Road. The center is open Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.; and Wednesday noon to 4 p.m.; Saturday 8 a.m. to noon.
Each household is limited to ONE chute.
