The City of Sedalia's Clean Sweep program continues this week.

 

This week will focus on the area between Limit to Grand, and
Broadway to the Katy Trail.

Set-Out Guidelines

All items must be placed at the curb or in the green space between the sidewalk and street by 5:00 a.m. on Monday of the resident’s Clean Sweep week. Materials should be placed away from trees and overhead lines and must be separated into designated piles to assist collection crews.

Collection Limits

Each residence may set out up to 4 cubic yards of bulky waste and 4 cubic yards of yard waste or tree trimmings. Four cubic yards is approximately equal to two standard pickup truck loads.

Material Separation Requirements

Materials must be separated into the following categories:

*Yard waste, including vegetation, branches, leaves, brush, and tree debris. Leaves and grass must be placed in biodegradable bags. Limbs may not exceed six feet in length or three feet in width.
*Construction and demolition materials, including carpet, lumber, drywall, siding, pallets, windows, and screen doors.
*Other unwanted items, such as furniture, mattresses, clothing, toys, grills, and patio furniture.
*Appliances, including refrigerators, washers, dryers, ranges, microwaves, dishwashers, and window air conditioning units, must be kept separate. Appliances are banned from Missouri landfills and must be separated from other materials.

Exceeding Program Limits

If materials exceed the allowed amount, a door hanger will be placed at the residence, and additional charges will appear on the next utility bill. Fees are based on the number of cubic yards collected beyond the program limit.

Residents with questions or who would like a cost estimate may contact the Sanitation Division at (660) 827-7820, Monday through Friday, from 7:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
