Spring Clean-Up Day It’s Back! By Cassie Johnson
F
or more than 30 years the City of Paducah has hosted its annual Spring CleanUp Day. Like many other activities, it was cancelled last year because of the pandemic. This year, it’s back and better than ever!
On April 24, rain or shine, residents of Paducah and McCracken County can bring a variety of items to be properly disposed of. The event takes place from 7am to 2 pm. Please remember, you will need your driver’s license to verify your address. “Spring Clean-Up Day is a valuable service to help keep our community safe and clean,” said Chris Yarber, City of Paducah Public Works Director. “It’s an opportunity for city and county residents to dispose of items that may not fit or be appropriate for their weekly garbage collection. The proper disposal of household cleaners, herbicides, and other chemicals is extremely important to protect the environment.”
