Fall Dumpster Day

Saturday, Oct 26th

8am - 11:30am

Roanoke Community Center

​

BE SURE TO REVIEW our Dumpster Use Policy before heading down as this is a VNA member funded event and we reserve use of the dumpsters accordingly. You can read these rules and list of allowed/disallowed items on our website under the resources tab.

Details: We will have 2 dumpsters for trash and 1 dumpster for yard waste. We also plan to invite metal scrappers to recycle metal items.

​

Electronics / E-waste recycling: we will try to arrange for electronic recyclers to come, but this has not been confirmed. Please check back here for current information.

​

NOTE: Please read drop-off rules and other important details on our website here:  www.volkerkcmo.org/dumpster-use-policy
