Annual Fall Cleanup

2024 FALL CLEANUP SCHEDULE

It’s almost time to discard your unwanted items (junk) from your home, yard, shed, garage, & basement.

Our crew and trucks cover 200+ miles of road during the 7-week Town Cleanup. Please look

at the schedule carefully and have your junk and yard waste out on the roadside prior to the start

of your week. We will only pick up once for junk and once for yard waste during your week, we can

not come back as it takes us the entire week to complete each fire district.

Examples of acceptable items: Sofa, chairs, box spring, washer, dryer, toys, scrap wood, plumbing

fixtures, lawn furniture, grill, carpeting, dry empty paint cans without lid. Glass items like

windows and mirrors, but please tape or wrap in plastic to avoid them from shattering.

Brush: MUST be piled separately from Junk and will be picked up during your scheduled Fall Cleanup

week. Branches must be 6 inches in diameter or less and no more than 8 feet in length. Please stack

neatly away from fences, power poles and low wires.

Leaves & Yard Waste: MUST be in paper leaf bags or cardboard boxes. No plastic bags will be picked

up as they are not biodegradable and cannot be composted. No stones, dirt or trash of any kind in

bags please.

Please Note: Brush and yard waste will not be picked up again until after all 7 fire districts are

completed. OCRRA’S Amboy and Jamesville compost sites are open for residents to take yard waste if

you need to dispose of sooner. Call for more information.
