Leavenworth, WALocal News

The City of Leavenworth is excited to kick off its Annual Spring Clean-Up from April 12 to April 30, 2021, providing a crucial service to residents looking to tidy up their yards. This year, the city will offer free yard debris pickup in recyclable paper bags, encouraging sustainable waste disposal practices. In an effort to enhance the clean-up experience, the city is collaborating with Chelan County Fire District 3 to synchronize the Leavenworth Community Chipping Program with the clean-up schedule. This program allows residents to have their woody limbs and branches chipped before they are placed into the designated bags for collection. Detailed information regarding acceptable yard debris can be found in the linked 2021 Spring Clean-Up Flyer, ensuring residents are well-informed about the process.

The initiative not only aims to beautify the community but also promotes environmental responsibility among residents. By facilitating these clean-up efforts, the city demonstrates its commitment to a cleaner, greener Leavenworth. Community members are encouraged to participate actively and take advantage of this valuable service.
