Snow and Ice Removal:
Whenever the City experiences snow during the winter, the Public Service Department does its best to keep the streets clear and safe for travel. Primary streets, including Powell Road, Olentangy Street, Liberty Street, Sawmill Road and parkways, are serviced first.

“Collector” streets, which include Murphy Parkway, Ridge Side Drive, Ashmoore Drive, Village Park Drive, Chenango Drive, Hopewell Drive, Beech Ridge Place, Briarbend Boulevard, Vinwood Lane, Zion Drive, Grandshire Drive, Weatherburn Drive, Olentangy Ridge Place and Bartholomew Boulevard, are then serviced. Clearing these streets allows residents to come and go from various subdivisions within the City. Once a storm ends and the priority streets are cleared, other streets and cul-de-sacs within the community will be cleared.

Here are a few tips to decrease problems associated with snow removal:

• Avoid parking on streets or courts overnight during the winter months when snow is possible.
• Try to keep fire hydrants clear of snow if one is located in your yard.
• Place snow from plowed driveways to the right of driveways when facing the street to help City staff keep from plowing the snow back onto your property.
• Be cautious of the “Powell Road hill” at SR 315 & Powell Road. This stretch of road often is very slippery, and is not within the City’s maintenance jurisdiction.

Please be patient, as attention must first be focused on keeping the main streets, steep streets and school bus routes open. If you have any questions regarding snow and ice removal, call the City offices at 614.885.5380, extension “0.”

Leaf Removal:
In the fall, it’s not hard to find a pile of leaves somewhere that needs raking and clearing. In the City of Powell, leaves are collected free of charge by Rumpke during the fall season. Leaves should be placed in paper yard waste bags or in receptacles marked with yard waste stickers and set curbside along with your regular trash, on Tuesday, the City’s trash collection day. If you have questions about the City leaf collection, call 614.885.5380, ext. 1001.

For more information regarding proper leaf disposal, please review our Trash and Recycling Services page.

Christmas Tree Disposal:
Rumpke will be collecting Christmas trees for disposal during regularly scheduled trash pick-up for City of Powell residents. Trees more than four feet tall must be cut in half, and all pieces of the tree must then be tied together for collection. Trees should not be placed in plastic bags and should be free from all decorations. Residents should place the tree by the curb with regular trash for collection.
