Sanitary board details spring-cleanup program, extended scale-house hours and free tire coupon
Loading...
Summary
The Richmond Sanitary District’s director outlined the spring-cleanup flyer, special bulky-item pickup five days a week, extended scale-house hours June 8 and June 13 for oversized loads, and a coupon for four free tires per household valid through July 3.
The Richmond Sanitary District Board of Commissioners heard the director’s spring-cleanup report, which emphasized expanded services and temporary scale-house hours to help residents dispose of bulky and commercial loads.
Director (S3) told the board the district mailed a spring-cleanup flyer with details and posted it on the city website and social media. The flyer reiterates that the district is running special bulky-item pickup five days a week — accepting furniture, broken-down cardboard, carpet, appliances that do not contain Freon, tree limbs and bundled yard waste — and provides guidance on bundle lengths and accepted materials.
S3 said the district will extend scale-house hours on Monday, June 8, and again on Saturday, June 13, to accommodate vehicles that must use the scale, including commercial loads and household items that exceed the special-pickup limits (for example, Freon-containing appliances, tires and construction waste). The extended hours are intended to give residents and contractors extra opportunity to use the scale without interrupting normal weekday operations.
The director also said the district will include a coupon in the mailing that allows up to four tires per household to be disposed of free of charge; the coupon is valid from receipt through July 3. S3 added that the flyer includes recycling information, payment options, closing dates and other general sanitary-district guidance and that monthly operational reports are being updated and will be returned to the board soon.
The report provides residents with practical details for spring cleanup while clarifying which loads require scale-house service versus curbside special pickup. The district referred remaining scheduling and fee questions to management for follow-up and to the city website for public reference.
