Hermitage schedules bulk trash pickup

Springtime often sees households engage in some heavy duty cleaning, and thanks to a local initiative, they will be able to dispose of large items through a curbside pickup day.

The city of Hermitage will be holding its spring Bulk Trash Pick Up event, and it will take place on the regular collection day. Those who have items to dispose of have been requested to place them curbside the night before, and they do not need to be tagged.

Accepted items include everything from tables, chairs and other furniture to large appliances such as washers and dryers. Window glass, stoves, lamps, bikes and carpet rolls of no longer than four feet in length are also on the list. Any fridges or air conditioners must have doors and Freon removed. TVs, computers, bagged leaves. and fluorescent light bulbs will not be collected, however.

Many communities hold bulk trash pickup days like this one. A poster printing company will be happy to help keep the public informed about upcoming events that may be of interest to them.

Hermitage will be holding its Spring Bulk Trash Pick Up day on May 1. This will be the spring instalment of the program, and it will take place again in September. Other future dates can be found by visiting the calendar on the Hermitage website.
