On Saturday, March 8th, the Wayne County Commission will host a special event at the Wayne County Solid Waste Facility, allowing residents to dispose of residential furniture and lightweight construction materials without incurring any fees. This initiative will run from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, providing an excellent opportunity for local residents to clear out unwanted items at no cost.
However, it is important to note that lumber will no longer be accepted free of charge. Starting on this date, a fee of $72.21 per ton will be implemented for lumber disposal. This change applies exclusively to residents of Wayne County, and it is crucial to bring proof of residency or Wayne County tags to take advantage of the free disposal offer.
Once the designated containers reach capacity, no additional materials will be accepted, so residents are encouraged to arrive early. As a reminder, businesses and tires will still incur standard disposal fees. For any inquiries regarding this event, residents can reach out to the facility at 931-722-9616.
