The City of Centralia has announced this year’s fall city-wide cleanup event is scheduled for Monday, October 19th through Friday, October 23rd, 2020.

This curbside pickup service is provided by the City of Centralia Public Works Department. Participation is limited to single-family residences, townhomes, condominiums, and apartments that do not exceed four units per building.

All items are to be placed on the curb by 6 a.m. on the assigned pickup day. Any item(s) not longer than 5 feet or more than 50 pounds left at the CURBSIDE at any of the above-defined residential units will be picked up except for the following:

  1. Yard waste, including grass clippings, leaves, brush, and tree material
  2. Household refuse/garbage that should be put out for normal collection
  3. Large quantities of rocks, concrete, and construction materials including roofing materials, siding, and lumber (small amounts will be taken, no more than a 5-gallon bucket)
  4. Tires or cans of paint
  5. Large automobile parts such as engines and transmissions
  6. Lawnmowers or small engines which still contain gasoline or oil
  7. Televisions, radios, and computers
  8. DO NOT mix with trash to be picked up on normal collection days and DO NOT pile items on top of other items. Crews WILL NOT sort through the material. If an unapproved item is on top of an approved item, your items will not be collected.

The City is continuing to accept white goods such as freezers, refrigerators, stoves, washing machines, dryers, etc.

Residents are also asked to place smaller items in a container such as a box or a bag. Please consider recycling any cardboard, glass, aluminum and paper products at Clean & Green’s Recycling Center located on West McCord Street.

All items must be at the curb (not in the alley) by 6:00 a.m. on your normal garbage pickup day. Even if your garbage pickup is in your alley, these items are to be placed curbside.

The route WILL ONLY BE COVERED ONCE, NO EXCEPTIONS.

This is a service provided by the City of Centralia. The City requests each resident’s cooperation in this project.
