Spring/Fall Clean-up
Each year the city has a spring and fall clean-up to get rid of those unsightly items that accumulate on our properties each year. The regular fees are charged for appliances and e-waste. Due to the landfill fees that apply, appliances and e-waste can be set out at the curb on your normal garbage collection day.
What is E-Waste?
Computer mouse, circuit board, CD-rom drive, hard drive, keyboard, pair of speakers, cellular phone, pager, external modem, external drive, network hub or router, laptop battery, telephone, CPU for desktop computer, VCR, typewriter, TV, and fax machine just to name a few.
