Bayside Fall Clean Up Day One Month Away

Resident can bring everything, including the kitchen sink, on the next village clean up day, Oct. 27.

Preparation for the Village's Fall Clean-Up Day event on Saturday, Oct. 27 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. is underway.  

The Fall Clean-Up Day event is the last one for 2012, and as with previous events, vendors such as GoodWill and Habitat for Humanity will be on hand to help collect just about anything you need to dispose of, except for household hazardous waste (HHW). 

The village will take care of latex paint and motor oil, but residents are responsible for opening and dumping out the items at the event.
