Watertown's Annual Clean-Up Week: Important Information for Residents

The City of Watertown is bringing back its Annual City Wide Clean-Up Week, starting on Monday, April 22, and ending on Thursday, April 25, 2024. Residents are encouraged to place items on their boulevards from Saturday, April 20 to Sunday, April 21 for collection. Timely placement is crucial as the city will not revisit areas for collection.

Residents should not set out items before Saturday, April 20, to comply with city regulations. Disposal items should be sorted into two categories: metal and non-metal. The metal category includes household appliances like washers, dryers, and refrigerators. The city advises residents to leave Freon in these items for removal at the Watertown Regional Landfill.

The non-metal category includes items such as rolled carpet, furniture, and large electronics. All metal items will be recycled. Items not suitable for boulevard placement, like cardboard and construction rubble, can be taken to the Watertown Landfill's Free Self-Haul Event from April 22 to May 3.

A list of prohibited items is available on the city's website. The City of Watertown thanks the Park, Rec, and Forestry Department and Street Maintenance, Airport, and Solid Waste divisions of the Public Works Department for organizing the event.

The citywide clean-up is a community effort to keep Watertown clean. All residents are encouraged to participate and help maintain their community.
