Project Clean and Green: May 23 – 27

Time to clean the garage, basement and attics or materials involved in moving out.  Get rid of excess household debris at no cost.  City of Milwaukee Collection Crews will target one zone each week and collect extra items left at the collection point on the scheduled Collection Day. Murray Hill is part of Zone 7 which will be targeted for clean up the week of May 23-May 27.

Residents can place unwanted furniture, mattresses, household items, up to 2 cubic yards of tree trimmings and up to 5 tires at the garbage collection point (curb or alley) on their scheduled garbage collection day.

After your Project Clean and Green week, there will be a $50-$150 charge for all bulky pickup requests larger than 1 cubic yard (about the size of an easy chair).

Crews will not collect appliances, TVs, electronics, construction debris, paint, grass, yard waste or more than 2 cubic yard of tree trimmings.  These items can be taken to a City Self Help site for proper disposal.

Household hazardous waste will not be included in this Project Clean and Green Special week but can be taken to 3879 W. Lincoln Avenue on Thursdays, Fridays or Saturdays from 7AM – 3 PM.  Or you can plan ahead for the summer when there will be a Metropolitan Milwaukee Sewage District Home Hazmat Collection on the Eastside of Milwaukee at the UWM U-Park Lot at 4150 N. Humboldt on July 16, 8 am- 2 pm.
