Operation Clean Sweep in the Skinker-DeBaliviere area is scheduled for Monday, May 1st (from city limits to DeBaliviere).
GET RID OF UNUSED ARTICLES FROM BASEMENTS, YARDS, ATTICS: ANY ITEMS THAT ARE NOT NORMALLY PICKED UP BY THE TRASH COLLECTORS.
TRASH FOR OPERATION CLEAN SWEEP MUST BE PLACED OUTDOORS THE DAY BEFORE THE PICK UP IS SCHEDULED. (Place them where your trash is regularly picked up.)
All trash must be neatly bundled or placed in a container. (Trash cans will be emptied by the regular refuse crews.)
No bundle may be more than 8 feet in length or two feet in diameter. No sharp edges or projections.
No bundles may weigh more than 100 pounds. If an item weighs more than that it should be dismantled so that two men can lift it on to the truck.
Place your trash in such a way that streets, alleys and sidewalks are easily useable.
Containers, other than specified trash cans, will be picked up with the trash.
