Gore Public Works Authority (GPWA) customers will be allowed to dispose of undesirable items, with some exceptions, during the town’s fall cleanup day, set for Saturday, Oct. 5, from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Those participating will need to present proof of service (a current GPWA water/trash bill), and a picture ID could also be requested.
Large containers will be temporarily placed at the gravel parking lot, west of the Steve Owens Sports Complex baseball fields, where items can be disposed of. This is located on Steve Owens Road, which adjoins East 3rd Street and meets U.S. Hw. 64 on the east side of Gore.
Items that will not be accepted for disposal include: 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, and compressors will be accepted upon removal. Batteries will also be accepted.
