"Due to heavy volumes of material generated from Hurricane Sandy and changes in daylight savings, the curbside leaf pickup is experiencing some delays," the release said. "If leaves were not picked up on your regular trash day, please leave them out as the leaf collection contractor will be bringing in an additional truck to get caught up on the routes and keep up with demand."

Curbside collection of leaves is scheduled to continue in Wilmington through the week of November 26.
