Volunteers with Keep Wills Point Beautiful and the city of Wills Point will host their annual city wide cleanup event April 6-8 at the open lot located next to Fire Tech located on the corner of W. High St. and N. 5^th St.

Cleanup hours will run from 7 a.m. – 5 p.m. each day of the event.

The two entities traditionally schedule for the event to be held in proximity to Texas Trash-off Day, which has been scheduled for April 8 this year.

According to www.dontmesswithtexas.org, the “trash-off is the single largest one-day cleanup event in the state and serves as Texas’s signature event for the Great American Cleanup, the nation's largest community improvement program.”

Accepted items are set to include appliances, brush, residential trash, bulky items, cement/rock and construction debris not to exceed 10 cubic yards.

Prohibited items that will not be accepted include commercial dumping, chemicals, hazardous materials, paint, pesticides, roofing materials, tires and batteries.
