City announces fall 2023 Bulky Waste Cleanup events
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – The City of Fayetteville will host four Bulky Waste Cleanups this fall. The biannual events provide an opportunity for Fayetteville residents to dispose of large, bulky items that cannot fit into a normal trash cart.
The Recycling and Trash Collection (RTC) Division hosts eight Bulky Waste Cleanups each year – four events in the spring and four in the fall. There are two drop-off locations during each event. Cleanups are open to Fayetteville residents, who are asked to bring a recent utility bill or a valid driver’s license to verify residency.
Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) materials will not be accepted. HHW can be brought to the HHW Drop-off Trailer, located at S. Happy Hollow Road and 15th Street, each Thursday 8 a.m. - 1 p.m.
Electronic waste will be accepted on all four dates at the RTC facility, located at 1560 S. Happy Hollow Road. Large trailers also should be brought to the RTC facility.
Detailed information on what is accepted can be found on the City’s website: https://www.fayetteville-ar.gov/743/Bulky-Waste.
