Village Holds 'Spring Clean Up' Starting April 13

To help residents with their spring cleaning, the Village of Plainfield and Waste Management will be sponsoring Spring Cleanup for Village residents during the week of April 13.

Residents can place household refuse, bulk items (i.e. chairs, mattresses, and couches), and white goods (i.e. refrigerators, washers, dryers, and water heaters) at the curb on their regular pickup day. The following electronics will also be accepted during Spring Cleanup: computers, monitors, televisions, and printers. Please have all materials at the curb by 6:00 a.m. on your collection day.

The following materials are excluded from Spring Cleanup: hazardous waste (paints, oils, and solvents), tires, construction and demolition materials, concrete, rock, dirt, engines or large automotive parts, electronic wastes outside those listed above, and any oversized items that cannot be placed in a compactor type truck.

All items placed at the curb for collection must be normal residential refuse and must be packaged properly. For information on proper packaging, please visit the Village web site. For additional information on Spring Cleanup, please contact Waste Management at 1-800-796-9696.
