Some Columbiana communities have set dates for their annual leaf pickup.
Leaf pickup in Leetonia begins Nov. 3 and end Dec. 5. Village crews will pick up only leaves piled at the curb.
Leaves mixed with other material such as brush or grass clippings will not be picked up, Administrator Gary Phillips said.

Salem also begins its annual leaf pickup Nov. 3.
The effort will start on the city's southeast side, followed by the northeast, northwest and southwest sections.
Leaves should be raked to the curb lawn for pick up.
Do not bag the leaves or rake them into the street, city officials say.
