Glasgow’s Spring Cleanup & Free Shredder Day: Dates, Rules, and Storm Allowances

Mayor Henry Royse talks with Wes Billingsley of Glasgow Public Works about the city’s Free Shredder Day (9 a.m.–noon on March 21 at the South Central Bank Ops Center) and Spring Cleanup Week (March 23–27). They explain pickup scheduling by regular garbage routes and allowances made because of recent ice storm damage. Key rules covered: put items at the right-of-way (edge of the road), bundle tree limbs into 3-foot tied bundles for regular pickup, dried paint is acceptable but no liquid paint, and appliances are not collected by the crew (but can be taken to the landfill free). Items not accepted include pesticides, batteries, asbestos, tires, auto parts, and construction materials such as drywall. Crews may run behind schedule due to high volume but will complete pickups.
