We have schedules to cut and clear grass, hedges and leaves, but they may change due to weather conditions.
Grass cutting
We cut the grass on verges, and in our parks, open spaces and communal gardens every 12 working days between March and November.
Hedges and shrubs
We cut all hedges and shrubs in the borough that are either next to roads, or in public open spaces, parks and cemeteries.
Hedges and shrubs are cut annually between November and March. We also cut back verges on rural country lanes three times a year.
We'll only cut back a hedge or shrub if it's causing an obstruction of affecting the visibility of the road (this does not include hedge height). To report an overgrown hedge or shrub please email us at connectcc@solihull.gov.uk.
Leaves
Every autumn we clear a large number of leaves that fall from trees. Our main sweeping schedule takes place from October to December.
Most leaves are cleared by our normal service but some areas require extra clearance due to a high number of trees.
Check our leaf clearance schedule
If your road is not included, it will be cleared during our normal sweeping service.
While we monitor the clearance schedule during autumn, if you have any safety concerns please email us at connectcc@solihull.gov.uk.
