Getting Rid of Your Junk

/in ,

There will no longer be Spring and Fall bulk waste weeks. Why? Because the method and timing of Bulk Waste Collection for residents with curbside trash collection has changed. Here’s how to dispose of your bulk waste from now on:

  1. Small bulk items should go in your cart every week.
  2. Large bulk items such as furniture and rugs will be collected “on demand.” You may schedule to have 2 bulk collections per year for a total of 4 large bulk items per year. Those 4 items are included in your refuse service.
  3. Bulk recyclables will also be collected “on demand”. You may schedule to have 2 bulk recyclables collections per year for a total of 4 large recyclable items per year. This includes appliances, covered-device electronics such as televisions and computers, and car tires (4 car tires off the rims = 1 item). Those 4 items are included in your refuse service.

The collection of additional bulk items or bulk recyclables may be scheduled for an extra fee. When you call or email to schedule your collection, customer service will be able to provide a cost for any extra items.

Schedule your bulk collections whenever it is convenient for you by calling 814-826-2722 or emailing cogcs@centrecountyrecycles.org. You will know the exact day your items will be picked up.

Do you have unwanted items that seem too good to go to the landfill? There are a lot of options for getting what you cannot use any more into the hands of someone who can. Go to www.crcog.net/refuse for ways to donate unwanted items. Click on the “Donate, don’t Dump” image.
