Leaf Blower and Lawn Equipment Rules in Arizona

Arizona restricts leaf blower use in specified air-quality areas. These rules apply to gas and electric equipment.

Each entry shows the date we last checked it. Ordinances change, so confirm against the live municipal code before quoting any of this in a public meeting. Where we say a jurisdiction has no restriction, that usually means we could not find one, which is not the same as establishing that none exists.

State and local rules

Maricopa County and designated air-quality areas

In covered areas, leaf blowers may not be used on unstabilized surfaces or to blow landscape debris onto public roadways. Arizona’s rule applies in specified counties and air-quality areas, including Maricopa County. Public-employee restrictions also apply on high-pollution days.
