Posted In Downtown Winter Park, Winter Park Events, Winter Park News   On September 13th, 2012   Add A Comment

Winter Park City-Wide Clean UpThe City of Winter Park is pleased to announce that in addition to the annual Spring Cleanup, the city also provides a Fall Cleanup during the month of October, just in time for the holiday season. This large-item pickup service will provide a ‘bonus’ day on which Waste Pro®, the city’s solid waste service provider, will pick up old furniture, broken appliances and other bulky items.

To take advantage of this convenient service, residents must place their items curbside after 5 p.m. on the evening before their second scheduled garbage & trash pickup day on their designated cleanup week. If you live north of the Fairbanks/Aloma avenues corridor, your bonus pick-up will be the week of October 8. If you live south of the Fairbanks/Aloma avenues corridor, your bonus pick-up will be the week of October 15.

Please Note: Hazardous waste, electronics and yard waste are NOT included in the Fall Cleanup.

 For more information regarding Winter Park’s annual Fall Cleanup or additional information regarding Waste Pro services, please call 407-774-0800.
