The City of Prescott will be providing a Bulk Item Collection Event beginning August 28 to assist residential trash customers with disposal of bulky items that do not fit in their regular trash or recycle container.  Bulky items include but are not limited to large household items such as mattresses, furniture, BBQ grills, bikes and appliances. Yard waste needs to be cut down into 4-foot lengths and smaller items need to be bagged, bundled, boxed or tied.      

City crews will pass through each neighborhood one time only. Each Cleanup Week route will begin on MONDAY and be completed on a Friday, as noted in the schedule below.
