The electronics recycling event precedes the annual Fall Cleanup Program for all Cuyahoga Falls Sanitation customers from Tuesday, September 5, through Friday, September 15. Note the one-day delay for the observance of Labor Day. Please place all Fall cleanup refuse at the curb on your regularly scheduled trash pickup day by 7:00 a.m. for collection during this time.
Hazardous waste, tires, car parts, or large amounts of construction material will not be taken. All other acceptable trash items (furniture, appliances, misc.) will be picked up free of charge.
Additionally, yard carts are available and may be obtained by visiting the Utility Billing Department. A $25 down payment is required but is refundable upon return of the cart. Please remember that yard carts and all trash receptacles should be placed 3 feet away from the curbs, trees, and any other obstructions so that sanitation workers may complete all pickups as effectively and efficiently as possible.
Residents and businesses are reminded that the only acceptable yard waste materials are: leaves, grass clippings, weeds and brush, shrubbery, edgings without dirt, twigs, and small branches less than four inches in diameter. Contamination charges for trash, dirt, rocks, mulch, and plastic bags may apply.
