2017 Dumpster Day
Saturday March 11, 2017

Spring is right around the corner and it's time to start trimming the shrubs, digging through the attic and garage and removing the clothing draped over the stationary bicycle. That's right, sort it out and get it out of your life. The City's Garage Sale Weekend is over and for whatever you didn't sell WSNA's annual Dumpster Day on Saturday, March 11th can help. We have seven, count them seven dumpsters this year for your convienence. The locations and dumpster monitors are:
1. John & Lois McGuiness 1423 N. Lowell
2. Jeff Farner & Mike Silva 812 N. Lowell
3. Kurt & Jean Preston 1118 W. Washington
4. Rob & Maco Long 1122 N. Freeman
5. Jeff Qualey 1517 N. Louise Street
6. Josie Martinez 1501 N. Rosewood
7. Reuben Salazar 1420 N. Towner

 

Waste Management delivers the dumpsters around 8AM, sometimes earlier, sometimes later. Some years they fill up very quickly so make it a point to get up early if you have a lot to dispose of. Don't wait until Saturday to start trimming your trees. You might find the dumpsters full if you show up at 11:00 with a truckload of trimmings. Also if you have concrete or heavy material to dispose of, get there early as it has to go at the bottom of the dumpsters. You probably got a flier in the mail, if you didn't download it here. If you need more information, here's the guidlines for dumpster monitors with hazardous waste info. Remember it would cost hundreds of dollars to order your own dumpster and the City and WSNA brings them to you at no cost every year. The monitors are all volunteers so take them a donut or help sweep up after the dumpsters leave. Here are some pictures from 2015 to get you in a trashy mood.

A big part of Dumpster Day is free eWaste disposal. This year All Green will be helping us out with a bin at each location for your eWaste. That's televisions, computers, computer monitors, personal electronic devices, laptops, hard drives, keyboards, printers, power tools, cell phones, copiers, fax machines, microwaves, electric heaters, electric fans, telephones, cables & wire, vcr's, video cameras, rechargable batteries, etc. If it has a cord or batteries, they take it.

Your eWaste will be responsibly recycled instead of ending up in a landfill. .
