News Release

WARSAW — The Public Works Department of the city of Warsaw along with Borden Waste Away Services/Integra and Waste Management will be offering expanded services to Warsaw residents in celebration of Earth Week.

The following services will be made available to residents from Monday, April 21, through Friday, April 25.

Loose Leaf Pickup

Large piles of leaves can be raked to the curb or alley. They will be picked up on your regular trash day and need to be out by 7 a.m. Do not put sticks or other trash in the leaf piles. Small piles will need to be bagged or boxed and will be picked up on your regular trash day.

As a reminder, leaves cannot be raked into the streets and gutter lines because doing so clogs the storm water catch basins and creates drainage problems that can lead to flooding.

Waste Management

Waste Management will place four 30-yard containers at its local transfer station. Residents (identifications will be checked to verify addresses) can drop off items (not truckloads from rental property clean-outs) at no charge. Waste Management will donate the dumping fees and is happy to offer residents assistance in disposing of their spring cleaning items. This service will be free of charge to the residents residing within the corporate city limits of Warsaw. Waste Management’s transfer station is located at 2352 N. Boeing Road, Warsaw. Its hours are 6 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Shredding

Borden Waste Away/Integra Shredding will host a community shred drive day. This will be a “drive through” service. Integra will have a shred truck at the Public Works Department, located at 794 W. Center St., Warsaw, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Tuesday, April 22. City employees will load your papers in totes, and Integra will shred the documents on the spot.

Paper Lawn And Leaf Bags

Paper lawn and leaf bags will be available for city residents to pick up at the Public Works Department, located at 794 W. Center St. Residents (identifications will be checked to verify addresses) are invited to pick up six bundles of paper lawn and leaf bags to use for their natural debris pickup this year. Hours for distribution will be regular business hours, which are 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday.
