(ORLEANS) – The Orleans Town Council has set April 8-13 as “Town-Wide Clean Sweep Week,” and is encouraging all local residents to participate in the clean-up efforts.
Town crews will be picking up large items of discard free of charge that week.
Discard items should be placed curbside for easy pickup. Also, a large dumpster will also be set at the Orleans Town Garage for resident use that week. Residents are welcome to bring any unwanted or junk type items they want to dispose of and place in the dumpster.
The town’s newspaper recycling bin will also be available as well.
The Orleans Chamber of Commerce and Dogwood Festival Committee are also participating in this special community event and asking everyone’s help to make our hometown beautiful by taking the time to clean up, spruce up, fix up, and paint up all around town that week. Youth groups, service groups, business people, families and churches are welcome and urged to help sweep the town clean,
