Details below from the press release:
In partnership with Lake County Waste Management, these events listed below are part of our Clean California program. The events encourage responsible trash handling practices as well as disposing waste materials safely and properly.
"The best way to keep California clean is not to trash it in the first place,” said Caltrans Director Toks Omishakin. “Clean California’s goal is to make sure trash never ends up on our roadsides, highways and waterways, and these Dump Day events are giving folks a chance to help make that happen by disposing of their items safely, properly, and at no cost.”
Please join us for a Large Item Dump Day event in Lake County on November 20 from 7:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the following locations:
• Lakeport Transfer Station, 230 Soda Bay Road, Lakeport
• Clearlake Landfill, 16015 Davis Avenue, Clearlake
Please bring your large items on Saturday, November 20 in Lake County. We welcome your items, including household items such as furniture, household electronics, appliances, tires, large/bulky items, and mattresses. No construction debris, hazardous waste, business waste, household trash and yard/landscape debris will be accepted.
Caltrans wants to remind motorists to properly secure and tarp all cargo loads prior to driving. Transporting unsecured loads is unsafe, illegal, and pollutes California's roads and waterways. Loads that are not tied down/secured by tarps or other means, or enclosed will not be accepted.
Tips for securing your load:
· Completely cover loads with tarps or cargo nets. Debris can escape from gaps.
· Remove loose material & trash before driving.
· Don't overload, keep materials level with your truck bed.
· Put light items lower, tie large items to the vehicle for traffic safety.
