The annual Clean-Up Day conducted by the City of Okoboji
will be Monday, June 10th this year, one day only.
The Clean-Up Day is designed to pick up items not normally
picked up for regular garbage collection, and is for
residential only. Please limit the weight of items you
wish to have picked up, and have your items at the curb
before 7:00 a.m. on June 10th.
Be sure all planks/boards are cut not to exceed 6 (six) ft.
in length for disposal. Batteries, paint, insecticide cans
and other hazardous waste will not be picked up. The City will
no longer collect the following special items for free on
Clean-Up Day: white goods (appliances), brown goods (electronics),
televisions, mattresses, box springs, stuffed furniture items, car
tires, truck and tractor tires. Tags must be purchased for the
collection of those items. (Reminder: Residents may use this tag
system all year round to dispose of unwanted items- not just on
Clean-Up Day.)
Call Okoboji City Hall (332-2550) if you have any questions.
