City's Clean-up Day Set for Oct. 13

This year’s event includes an expanded donation option as well as a drop-off for the old recycling bins no longer used in the City’s curbside recycling program. Brookview Park is just south of Hwy 55 at Winnetka Ave. Enter from Winnetka Avenue. You must be a Golden Valley resident to participate (proof of residency is required at the entrance) and fees apply (cash and checks only).

Mighty Tidy Clean-Up Day provides a monitored site to dispose of items residents no longer use, that cannot be donated, and that can litter homes and yards and become a nuisance. It’s just the place to unload unwanted items like old mattresses and sofas, broken bicycles, ancient appliances, old tires, outdated computers, televisions, paper, and other items piling up around your home. (Hazardous wastes of any kind are not accepted. For information about how to dispose of hazardous wastes, check the recycling information on Hennepin County’s website .)

The event will also include free paper shredding as well as an opportunity to donate furniture, textiles, and food items to local non-profits.
