Annual Cleanup. The annual neighborhood cleanup provides the opportunity for residents to bring their bulky waste and certain recyclables to a convient location for a fee generally less than the minimum charge at the landfill. Over the years the neighborhood cleanup has shifted focus from just providing a convenient way for neighbors to dispose of bulky waste to a concerted effort to reduce the amount of waste heading to the landfill.
