Help clean up Glen Rock by cleaning up our yards and porches to show how great our town can look.

So what do you do with your large bulk items? Put them out with your trash on Fridays! Yes, the trash hauler will take one large item per week during our regular trash pickup on Fridays. So, trim your trees and bushes and put the trimmings out with your regular trash. Have an old couch or other undesirable items on the front porch? Put it on the curb on Friday.  Look around your yard for junk that will never be used again and get rid of it!

Remember that Friday is recycling day and large items are only accepted on Fridays. Check out the list below for examples of what large items are acceptable and what is not.
