Time to clean out the garage, the attic, under the deck, your closet, or wherever you’ve decided to stuff all the things you want to get rid of. The City of Garnett has designated November 4th through November 8th as City Wide Clean Up week. The City-Wide Clean-Up week allows city crews to pick up items left curbside, to dispose of at the county landfill, at no charge, to city refuse customers who participate by placing their unwanted items out for city crews to pick up. City crews will start on the north side of town and proceed south until the entire town has been covered. City crews will not go back once they have been through. Brush will not be picked up at this time.
Please note… the City of Garnett will be charged by Anderson County for dumping fees for items picked up during clean-up week, just like any other week. However, this year, this cost will not be passed on to refuse customers. Remember: this is not a free dump week. If you choose to take your unwanted items to the county landfill, you will be charged a fee during City-Wide Clean-Up week, November 4-8.
