The Village of Peoria Heights will hold a two-day Community Cleanup on Friday and Saturday, May 3 & 4, at the Public Works Garage, 3838 N. Boulevard Ave. in Peoria Heights.
Dumpsters will be available on site from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on each of those days.
The Village is working closely with its waste hauler, G&O Disposal, to coordinate the cleanup, which is a preemptive move aimed at preventing the littering of local alleys with large items that are not eligible for curb pickup.
That said, the landfill will not be accepting everything. Not eligible for disposal are tires, appliances (dishwashers, humidifiers, laundry machines, air conditioners, refrigerators, water heaters, etc.), electronics (televisions, stereo equipment, computer monitors, keyboards, etc.), large batteries, hazardous waste including motor oils and wet paints, propane tanks and yard waste, among other items.
Residents are permitted to drop off one mattress and box spring.
