Roswell, GA -- Roswell and Milton residents have less than 48 hours to prepare for Bulky Trash Amnesty Day.

The Public Works Departments of Roswell and Milton, along with Keep Roswell Beautiful, is encouraging residents to clean out their garages, basements, and attics and drop off any unwanted, large items on Saturday, March 5.

Citizens can take advantage of this initiative from 8 a.m. to noon at the Roswell Public Works Division at 1810 Hembree Road.

Proof of residency is required (utility bills are the preferred method; Roswell residents with the window decal do not need any other form of identification).

This event has become very popular, so please expect delays. Examples of accepted items include:

• 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

• 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 organizations in the area.
