Large items will be picked up in the City of Whitewater on Thursdays: May 4, May 11, May 18, and May 25

Editor’s note: If you have furniture or other items that are in good condition, you may wish to consider donating them to The Community Space (TCS) instead of discarding them. TCS is located at 834 E. Milwaukee Street, and donations are gratefully accepted — to be given away for free — at the back door at the following hours: Tuesday 8:30-11:00 a.m., Wednesday 3:30 – 7:00 p.m, and Saturday 8:30 a.m. – noon.

• These additional pickup days are for garbage or recycling items that are too large to fit in the toters.
This does not include yard waste, construction materials, hazardous materials or electronics (including
TVs).
• An Electronics Recycling Event is scheduled for May 20 from 9 a.m. – 1 p.m., in Lot B (Cravath
Lakefront). Additional information will be forthcoming.
• Place all large items including furniture, carpeting, large metal, large cardboard boxes (emptied and
flattened) and appliances 6′ away from, and not in front of or next to, the toters.
• Items such as automotive batteries, tires (two per home per month), drain oil (in sealed 1-5-gallon
container) should also be 6′ away from the toters.
• Garbage toters, recycling toters and bulk items should not be placed at the collection point
sooner than 4:00 p.m. on the day before the collection day.
• Toters or bulk items should not remain at the curb line after 9:00 a.m. on the day after the scheduled collection time.
