This weekend is the time to get rid of those bulky items.
Taylor’s municipal government was scheduled to host its Citywide Spring Clean Up on Saturday, April 9. At cleanup events, Taylor residents are able to drop off unwanted items that are usually too bulky for disposal.
Collections times were from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. at 1200 Welch St. and 1424 N. Main St., where vehicles could enter the Public Works yard at Old Thorndale Road and exit on Main Street.
The event is free of charge. Proof of residency, such as a City of Taylor water bill or valid ID showing a Taylor address, is required at cleanup events.
Cut brush is accepted. The brush must be in 5-foot sections.
While most bulky items are accepted, there are exceptions. The following items are not accepted:
• Appliances with refrigerant
• Batteries
• Hazardous Materials
• Paint
• Solvents
• Tires
• Waste Oil
• Roofing Shingles
• Concrete
• Uncut brush
