*We have pro­vid­ed an UPDAT­ED release for the Third City­wide Cleanup show­ing an adjust­ed perime­ter to cov­er more area while help­ing city crews use famil­iar rout­ing for curb­side pick­up. Below, you’ll find the new release along with a map of the quad­rant includ­ed in the release.

At the end of the month, the City of Mar­i­on will hold its third of four City­wide Cleanups this year on Sat­ur­day, August 31^st, from 9am-2pm. All Mar­i­on res­i­dents may drop unwant­ed items off at the Cen­tral Loca­tion any­time between 9am and 2pm that day. *ID is required for proof of residence. 

The 3^rd City­wide Cleanup ​“Cen­tral Loca­tion” will be the City­wide Maintenance/​Street Depart­ment at 520 E. 6^th St. (Direc­tions: Turn south on Shunk Street from SR 18 (4^th St.). Dump­sters will again be pro­vid­ed by the City of Mar­i­on. Lit­ter grab­bers, trash bags, gloves, and oth­er resources will also be avail­able to cit­i­zens who need them. Piz­za will be pro­vid­ed at Noon, on a first come, first serve basis.

Res­i­dents who live between 9^th St. to Chapel Pike/​Sydney Ln., and from Wash­ing­ton St./River Dr. to Miller Ave. will have curb­side pick­up ser­vice that week­end as part of the Aug. 31^st Cleanup. *Res­i­dents must have items at their curb no lat­er than 9am that Sat­ur­day morn­ing as crews will begin curb­side pick­up with­in the quad­rant at that time. All res­i­dents out­side the des­ig­nat­ed quad­rant are asked to take unwant­ed items to the Cen­tral Loca­tion and not set them out at their curb. City crews are doing curb­side pick­up by quad­rant as an added ser­vice to cit­i­zens as part of the City­wide Cleanup.

For City­wide Cleanups, we do not accept con­struc­tion debris, yard waste, tires, TVs, paint, and burn bar­rels. Mar­i­on Util­i­ties has a Dis­pos­al Guide on their web­site under Sol­id Waste.

Res­i­dents who wish to con­nect with neigh­bor­hood lead­ers for guid­ance to help clean up their respec­tive area may find con­tacts at city​of​mar​i​on​.in​.gov/​n​e​i​g​h​b​o​r​hoods. Indi­vid­u­als or groups who acti­vate and clean up an area are encour­aged to use hash­tag, #cleanci­ty­mar­i­on.

City­wide Cleanup drop-offs hap­pen rain or shine. *Walk­ing cleanup efforts and oth­er projects on Cleanup days are not orches­trat­ed by the City, there­fore deci­sion-mak­ing based on weath­er, etc., is at the dis­cre­tion of those out­side groups or individuals.
