This Saturday, the City of Garretson will be hosting its annual Clean Up Day. During this time, Garretson and Sherman residents will be able to beautify the areas around their home by getting rid of large items and shred-able documents.
Between the hours of 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. on Saturday, May 4, residents are encouraged to bring large items to Garbage-N-More, located at 708 Nordstrom Avenue. Residents can bring anything except everyday garbage, used oil, paint cans, electronics, lawn chemicals, and organic garden waste.
Furniture, appliances, and painted wood will be accepted. Mattresses, box springs, and tires will be accepted for a charge (tires must be off-rim). Chargeable item costs are: mattresses/box springs $15 each, and tires $5 each.
The dumpsters are provided for Garretson/Sherman residents only and do not allow for after-hours drop-off. To keep traffic flowing smoothly, Garbage-N-More asks residents to come in off Nordstrom Avenue and drive around the back of the building to exit.
