The City of Pella is holding fall cleanup week from October 6th through the 10th. The event that starts on Monday is a means for Pella residential customers to conveniently dispose of bulky items that do not fit inside of a garbage tote. Participation in clean-up week is limited to those who have been issued a City of Pella authorized tote (dark blue with windmills stamped on the sides).

Although most household, bulky waste items may be set out for collection, there are certain things that will not be picked up during clean-up week, including, but not limited to, appliances and electronics.

Pick up of bulky waste items will take place on the normal garbage/recycling collection day only on the week of October 6th. All acceptable items should be placed at curbside no later than 7:00am on the scheduled day. Items not on the curbside by that time or placed out after the normal collection day will not be picked up.

All items should be placed at least four feet from the regular garbage tote. Questions regarding Fall Clean-Up Week should be directed to the Pella Public Works Department at 628-1601 or Midwest Sanitation at 628-2610. Find more details here.
