Friendswood fired up for fall haul

  • 2015-11-10
Friendswood, Texas is looking to clean up the town with the Fall Haul City-Wide Cleanup and Garage Sale.

The ambitious event will feature item pickup, a garage sale, and even free shredding services, though paper items with metal such as three-ring binders and Presentation Folders are excluded.

The event is part of the Keep Friendswood Beautiful initiative, and is being sponsored by the Parks and Recreation department as well as many local businesses. The cleanup portion of the event is being sponsored by Progressive Waste Solutions, which will accept tree limbs, grass cuttings, broken down furniture and appliances, as well as scrap wood, metal, and plastic. The organization is hauling items large and small to encourage residents to clear out long neglected junk. Hazardous waste will not be accepted.

The garage sale is also accepting donations. Proceeds will go to benefit Keep Friendswood Beautiful, and organizers are looking for items like old furniture, bikes, toys, and household items to sell. The group is also asking for items that will benefit wildlife rehabilitation efforts in the Friendswood area. In particular, aquariums, dog and cat carriers, clean rags, and shallow crock bowls are called for.

The Fall Haul will take place on Saturday, November 14 from 8:00 am until 2:00 pm at the Centennial Park located at 2200 S. Friendswood Dr. Anyone interested should check out the local Flyers or go to the website for more information.
