During this two week period, the County will provide vouchers to the public that are good for up to three cubic yards of trash and bulky items per person – the equivalent of about a full-sized truck bed. Vouchers are available to pick up at all Justice of the Peace and Constable Precinct offices or the Smith County Courthouse Annex, suite 100. There is a limit of one voucher per household and businesses may not participate in the voucher program.
The vouchers are valid Monday-Friday, 6:30am to 4:30pm and on Saturday from 6:30am to noon. 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 Greenwood Farms Landfill are provided with the vouchers.
