Gore Public Works Authority (GPWA) customers will be allowed to dispose of undesirable items, with some exceptions, during Gore’s fall clean-up day on Oct. 7, from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m.
The following items will not be accepted: hazardous materials, construction debris, tires, brush/tree limbs, liquids, paint, or appliances containing Freon (such as refrigerators, freezers and air conditioners). Items containing Freon may be accepted if the compressor is removed; compressors will be accepted upon removal. Batteries will also be accepted.
The location for drop off will be in large containers to be temporarily placed at the gravel parking lot west of the Steve Owens Sports Complex baseball fields. This is on Steve Owens Road, which adjoins East 3rd Street and meets US-64 on the east side of Gore.
You will need to present proof of service (a current GPWA water/ trash bill) to be allowed to participate. Also, a picture ID may be requested.
