The eighth and final Homeowners Cleanup Program date for 2015 and Oyster Bay Town residents will take place on Sunday, November 15th, according to Town Councilman Joseph G. Pinto.
“This is the last chance of the year for residents within the Town’s Solid Waste Disposal District to properly dispose of any garbage or clutter in their home through the Homeowners Cleanup Program by taking unwanted, non-hazardous trash to the Town’s Solid Waste Disposal Complex, located at 101 Bethpage-Sweet Hollow Road, Old Bethpage, from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m.,” Councilman Pinto said. “The remainder of fall is an ideal time to take any trash from your home, garage, or storage shed and bring it to be recycled before the trash piles up and winter sets in.”
The Councilman noted that proof of district residency must be shown. Additionally, if you plan to bring any boats or trailers, proof of ownership must be provided and signed over to the town. The boats must be drained of all oil, gas and other fluids, and all batteries must be removed.
Bushes, tree limbs, fence posts and similar items will be accepted as is and need not be broken into smaller pieces. Used tires, large metal items in excess of four feet, clean fill, clean broken concrete, and boats and boat trailers will also be accepted. Passenger cars, vans, pickup trucks and small trailers are admitted to the program. Six-wheel or larger vehicles are not permitted.
For more information, residents can call 516-677-5943.
