City of South Fulton Accepting Certain Hazardous Items During Spring Cleanup Day April 10
(CITY OF SOUTH FULTON, GA – March 5, 2021) – From unwanted furniture to used tires, the City of South Fulton will accept bulky and hazardous items for free disposal during the annual Spring Cleanup Day on April 10.
The event, open only to South Fulton residents, will take place from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Merck Miles Transfer Station – 3325 Merck Road – and at Creel Park – 2775 Creel Road. Gates will close at 1:30 p.m.
“We are asking people to help us tackle illegal dumping in our city,” said Mayor William “Bill” Edwards. “Often, people leave items like tires, mattresses, and other bulk trash along roadsides and in secluded areas, causing dangerous eyesores. We want to prevent these actions by encouraging people, ‘Don’t trash South Fulton.’”
The city will accept large items – such as furniture, appliances, televisions, computers, paints, and a maximum of four tires – at both locations. In addition, it will offer free document shredding and disposal of yard waste and hazardous chemicals – including adhesives, aerosols, cleaning supplies, pool chemicals, and fluorescent light bulbs – at the Mark Miles Transfer Station only. No construction or demolition debris will be accepted at either location and commercial vehicles will not be admitted.
