Don't Forget Dumpster Day

Every time I post something like this, I feel like I should be forty years older, a woman, and standing on my front porch--replete with curlers, muumuu, and house shoes. Maybe gossiping with Myrtle next door. And I'm probably living in some place like Dubuque. Well, perhaps South Pas is the Dubuque of Southern California. Point is, Dumpster Day is 'round the corner, and I can't wait to unload the old refrigerator moldering in our garage. What are you going to throw away?

Straight from the City's newsletter:

Clean out your back yard and empty your closets and garages — Dumpster Day will be here soon! The City of South Pasadena, Athens Services and Out Of The Closet will sponsor this citywide cleanup day. On Saturday, October 14, from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m., residents are invited to bring items to the corner of Mission Street and Arroyo Drive.

Athens Services will provide the dumpsters for all disposable items that are too bulky or heavy to place into regular trash containers such old furniture and appliances. This event is not for the disposal of green waste and loose materials, such as debris generated by yard clearing or construction materials. Examples of items that will be accepted include refrigerators, ovens, couches, tables, chairs, etc. This service is offered at no charge to South Pasadena residents with proof of residency.
