Got junk? Large item pickup starts Monday

Published by admin on Wed, 09/09/2020 - 2:39pm

It’s one of the most anticipated events of the season- and it doesn’t even involve a carnival, tourists or the lake.  The City of Clear Lake’s 2020 Fall Large Item Pickup will begin on Monday, Sept. 14.   The date has been especially anticipated since the cancellation of the Spring Pick-Up due to the pandemic.

Residents are encouraged to use the event as an opportunity to dispose of large items that cannot be discarded through their weekly garbage service.
