Smith County Clean-Up Week

TYLER — The Smith County Wide Clean-Up is underway and runs through July 31. The event is an opportunity for county residents to bring trash and bulky items to the Greenwood Farms Landfill for free. The Smith County Environmental Crimes Unit, precinct constables, and Commissioners Court are working together to host the event.

The County is providing vouchers to the public that are good for up to three cubic yards per person, about a full-sized truck bed. Smith County residents can pick up vouchers at all justice of the peace and constable precinct offices or the Commissioners Court Office in the Courthouse Annex. Vouchers can be picked up during normal business hours, Monday-Friday, 8:00am to 4:30pm. There is a limit of one voucher per household, and businesses may not participate in the voucher program. The vouchers come with a list of items that the Greenwood Farms Landfill, an Allied Waste Company, will not take. Directions and a map to the landfill are provided with the vouchers.

Items not accepted during the County Wide Clean-Up include hazardous waste, pesticides, herbicides, solvents, gasoline, oils, paint, acid, batteries, asbestos, Freon, whole tires, refrigerators, freezers, televisions, and computers.
