Fall Clean-Up Week in Pella is a way for residential customers in the community to conveniently dispose of bulky items that do not fit inside a garbage tote. It will be held on October 7th through the 11th. Participation in clean-up week is limited to those who have been issued a City of Pella authorized container, which is dark blue with windmills stamped on the sides. Although most household, bulky waste items may be set out for collection, there are certain items that will not be collected, including but not limited to appliances and electronics. Find a full list of what is not acceptable at the City of Pella website. The City of Pella also suggest donating any usable items to a charitable organization. Pick up of bulky waste items will take place on the normal garbage/recycling collection day only, and should be placed at curbside no later than 7:00 am on that respective morning. Residents are reminded to keep all items at least four feet from the garbage tote. Contact the Public Works Department at 628-1601 or Midwest Sanitation at 628-2610 for more information.
