Special Pick-Up (Curbside Bulks Items) is now Officially Complete

Written by

All streets have been covered by WCA in regards to bulk pick up items on the curb. Code Enforcement has been in behind them to verify that the curbs are free of bulk trash. Any location with bulk trash on the curb will now be in violation of illegal dumping. You may purchase a bulk item disposal permit at City Hall and drop those items at the Public Works Facility. Watch for an upcoming announcement on brush disposal and yard waste disposal.

Effective July 1 City Wide Special Pick Up will no longer be available.

Written by

Effective July 1, 2021, the city wide bulk item pickup will no longer be available. All final bulk items must be placed on curb no later than 6:00 am Monday, June 28, 2021. Items eligible for special pickup do not include bagged items or overflow of regular garbage. Special pickup only consists of large items that will not fit in a garbage can. Items must be placed on the curb free from blockage of any tree limbs, power lines, poles, mailboxes, or vehicles parked in the street. If any additional garbage cans are needed at your residence you may call city hall to request these for an extra $5.00 each on your monthly utility bill.
