AUBURN – The city of Auburn has announced the 2017 Bulky Waste Pickup Program for residents. Bulky Waste Pickup is a service which allows residents who currently receive weekly trash pickup from the City to dispose of materials not normally picked up during weekly solid waste collection.
Materials to be collected:
* Brush – Brush must be placed with the butt ends facing the street in a neat pile. No more than a pickup truck load will be collected by City staff. Additional brush can be brought to the Public Services Facility on Gracelawn Road in Auburn;
* Furniture;
* Rugs (must be rolled and taped);
* Mattresses and box springs (limit of six combined);
* Tires (four tire limit);
* Metals (Excludes large auto parts and metals containing hazardous materials);
* Propane tanks;
* White goods (washers, dryers, refrigerators, small appliances, etc.);
* Televisions (Televisions can also be brought to the Public Services Facility on Gracelawn Road at any time to dispose of free of charge.).
Materials that will not be collected:
* Paints, oils, cleaners, gasoline. No liquids of any type;
* Wood waste which includes construction and demolition debris;
* Shingles;
General notes:
* It is against City Ordinance for persons to scavenge through piles of debris put curbside for collection. If caught, it is punishable up to a $1000 fine. If you observe this activity, please report it to Public Services at 333-6670.
* Materials must be separated by type and placed in neat piles; please separate bulky waste from normal household waste.
* No more than one truck load of materials per residence.
* Please keep all material off the sidewalks.
Please be aware that from May 1 to May 19, Auburn residents may bring their bulky waste materials (excluding brush and tires) directly to the MMWAC facility on Goldthwaite Road free of charge. You must show proof of Auburn residency (i.e. driver’s license, vehicle registration, or tax bill). MMWAC is open from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday to Friday, and 7 a.m. to noon on Saturday.
City Public Service crews will collect materials, at normal collection points, during the dates listed below. All waste must be at roadside by 7 a.m. on the date that collection begins for your area. Crews will remove waste on a street-by-street basis and will not return to a street once waste material has been removed. No material may be placed curbside until April 30.
