Curbside Leaf Collection began Monday March 11th and will continue on weekdays through Friday, March 22nd. Please have leaves up against the curb, free of limbs, trash, and debris. There will be no set schedule.
ATTENTION CHARLESTON RESIDENTS: The Spring Clean-Up dumpsters will be set up behind City Hall beginning Saturday, March 30th and will be there through Sunday, April 7th. Please see the flyer for additional information.
ATTENTION CHARLESTON RESIDENTS:
This flyer was mailed out with water bills back in December. We are aware that the dates specified state that the collection would take place from October-December, but the company got a late start and it is taking longer than anticipated. Horner & Shifrin Engineering is contracted through the city to perform the lead survey. This was mandated to be done by the state of Missouri. It is required that they check every single residence and business. This is a long process and this is only the first phase. We kindly ask for your cooperation throughout this process.
The individuals going house to house will be wearing reflective vests and will have copies of the flyer. If you would like to schedule a time for them to come to your house, please call 618-726-0319.
Please be prepared for the delay in trash pick up. If you are normally a Monday route pick up, please have trash carts sitting out on Tuesday, December 26th and January 2nd. If you are normally a Tuesday route pick up, please have them out on Wednesday, December 27th and January 3rd.
Republic Services will be closed on Monday, December 25, for Christmas & Monday, January 1, for New Year’s. The week of Christmas and the week of New Year’s, we will be working on a one-day delay and we will be working Saturday to finish out the week.
