Street Maintenance
Loose Leaf Collection Program
The Town collects loose leaves once a month from each street at no charge during the months of November, December and January. To ensure collection, please place loose leaves curbside by 7 a.m. on the first scheduled day of collection for your area.
Potholes
Report Potholes and other damage to Public Works & Utilities at (919) 469-4090 weekdays between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. or e-mail pwutcustomerservice@townofcary.org. Missing or broken storm drain or manhole covers should be reported immediately. After business hours, call (919) 469-4012. Residential streets are swept every three months. Main thoroughfares are swept and ten times a year.
During wet winter weather months, we will work to provide a temporary cold patch to potholes on Cary-maintained streets by the next business day. Potholes on state-maintained roads in Cary will be reported to the N.C. Department of Transportation. View a map of roads in Cary to see streets by ownership.
Storm Drains
Storm drains are most often located in the curb of streets. Materials that enter the storm drains, including litter and other pollutants, go directly to area creeks and streams and not to one of Cary's treatment facilities. Missing and broken storm drain covers or manhole covers should be reported immediately to the Public Works & Utilities Department at 469-4090, Mon-Fri 8am-5pm or 469-4012 after hours, weekends and holidays.
For information on storm drain stenciling, contact Engineering at 469-4030.
