Dumpster Days service to be offered Nov. 4, 5

Springfield Township residents are invited to use a free dumpster service Friday and Saturday, November 4 and 5. Located behind the Springfield Township building, 7617 Angola Road, Dumpsters Days will be offered from 8 a.m. to noon. All loads will be inspected, and residency in Springfield Township will be verified.

After showing proof of residency, residents will be issued a numbered, walletsized card on their first visit. Each time a resident uses the card, it will receive a hole punch.

The card is good for up to three visits per household address in 2022.

Residents must have the card to use the Dumpster Days program.

Drop-offs are limited to one pick-up truckload of waste per day. Nothing above the natural sides of the pick-up truck. (No plywood sides.)

This service is not for commercial, industrial or business use.

No raw garbage, leaves, grass, tree stumps, computers, roofing materials, tires, batteries, ammunition, chemicals, explosives, toxic materials, hazardous waste, vehicle bodies or engines will be accepted. No asphalt, rocks, bricks, concrete, stone or sand will be accepted. No refrigerators, air conditioners or any appliances containing freon will be accepted.

Paint cans, barrels, drums and tanks are accepted, but must be empty with lids removed.

Brush and tree limbs are accepted, but must be kept separate from other waste.

They do not count as one of the three visits. Also, mulch is available free of charge to township residents. Dumpsters are located behind the township building inside the fenced area.
