Christiansburg’s semi-annual Fall Clean-up scheduled for Oct. 1-13

Posted September 25, 2012

The Town of Christiansburg has set the semi-annual Fall Clean-up for a two-week period beginning Oct. 1 through Oct. 13.

During this time, town residents desiring special trash pickup must place these materials with their garbage on the regular pickup day. Special trucks will pick up extra items not appropriate for normal weekly pickup. While there is no charge for items picked up during this time, there will be a charge assessed for items placed out after Oct. 13.

Items must be placed within 10 feet of the street pavement and must be placed in piles separate from normal trash. Loose materials, except for leaves, must be placed in containers not exceeding 32 gallons.

During the fall cleanup period, all residents are strongly encouraged to move all items not intended for pickup (i.e. basketball goals, lawn and gardening equipment, etc.) away from the street. It can be difficult for cleanup crews to determine which items are intended for pickup and which aren’t, so please move all personal property far back from the street while cleanup is going on. The town will not be responsible for any items left at or near the street that residents did not intend to have hauled away.

For information about what items the town will and will not pick up, please visit www.christiansburg.org/cleanup.

Citizens are encouraged to call Town Hall at 382-6120 for clarification before placing out questionable items.

Citizens are encouraged to dispose of electronic components by contacting the Montgomery Regional Solid Waste Authority at 381-2820 or by visiting www.mrswa.com.
