Free Dump Day For Mission Viejo Residents Scheduled For Feb.

MISSION VIEJO, CA — Mission Viejo residents looking to get a head-start on their spring cleaning can take part in a city-held Dump Day on Saturday, Feb. 17.

At the free event, residents can bring in bulky waste that's too large to fit in residential garbage bins — items including mattresses, furniture and toys will be accepted on a first-come, first-serve basis until 11 a.m. or until full capacity is reached.

According to the city, the following materials will not be accepted at the community Dump Day.

• Hazardous materials, such as: batteries, paints, oils, chemicals, pesticides, fluorescent lights, etc.
• Concrete, dirt, rocks, brick, asphalt or sand.
• Treated wood.
• Tires.

The city's Dump Day takes place from 8 a.m. to 11 a.m. on Saturday, Feb. 17 at Mission Viejo City Hall, 200 Civic Center.
