Earth Angel

Clean, Attractive Property Service (CAPS) is a service provided by the Solid Waste Department to city residents who wish to dispose of large bulky items such as couches, mattresses, furniture, appliances and brush. Large brush that is collected is ground up and recycled into compost. Items scheduled for pickup must be placed curbside by 6 a.m., with at least

20 feet of overhead clearance to safely operate equipment. Please do not place items under low power lines or tree limbs. We offer special assistance to the disabled and elderly. Residents may have two collections per year at no cost, up to one ton, and there will be a charge of

$20 for each collection thereafter. To schedule a CAPS pickup or for further information, call

321-6921.
