It's time for Allen's Great American Cleanup! This Saturday from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m., there will be two locations to bring your items for collection. To drop off trash, brush, white metal appliances and cardboard, head to the new location this year just north of Allen Premium Outlets to the intersection of Chelsea Boulevard and Allen Commerce Parkway. The collection site for donation, electronics and metal recycling, and paper shredding opportunities will be in the Allen City Hall parking lot, 305 Century Parkway. The event is once again hosted by the City of Allen Community Services Department, Keep Allen Beautiful (KAB) and Community Waste Disposal (CWD), and volunteers will be on hand to assist with vehicle unloading. Allen residents are asked to bring a current City of Allen water utility bill and driver's license in order to take advantage of this great cleanup, reuse and recycling opportunity. This event is for residential customers only. No box trucks or commercial quantities of recycling, electronics or shredding will be accepted. For a complete list of items being collected, please visit KeepAllenBeautiful.com. |
