The Public Works Departments of Roswell and Milton, along with Keep Roswell Beautiful, invite residents to clean out their garages, basements, and attics and dispose of unwanted, large items at no charge at Bulky Trash Amnesty Day.

Residents will be able to take advantage of this rare opportunity on Saturday, Dec. 5.

Residents from Roswell and Milton can bring items to the city of Roswell Public Works Division at 1810 Hembree Road from 8:00 a.m. to noon.

• (Please note: This event is NOT held at the Roswell Recycling Center)

Proof of residency is required, and utility bills are the preferred method of verification.

Roswell residents with the window decal do not need any other form of identification. This event is popular, so please expect delays.

Some of the items that will be accepted are:

• Tires (must be off the rim, automobile tires only; limit 4 per car)
• sofas
• tables
• refrigerators
• chairs
• washers and dryers
• televisions and other electronics
• deactivated cell phones

The following items will not be accepted:

• paint
• household hazardous waste
• any fluids including motor oil and anti-freeze
• household batteries
• construction and demolition materials
• yard waste

Materials will only be accepted at the site on the day of the event and only during the hours of 8 a.m. to noon. Please note that the line will be cut off at noon.

Residents are encouraged to donate any items that are still in good condition and could be used to a charity such as North Fulton Community Charities, Goodwill or any of the other charities in the area.

Please call to check with them before dropping off items, however.
