It’s time to clean up our beloved towns in Jackson County: both Edna and Ganado will hold a community clean-up in the following weeks.
Sponsored by the city, Edna is the first to start their clean-up, it began on Tuesday, July 8, and will last until Friday, July 11, each day from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. On Saturday, from 8 a.m. to noon, items can be dropped off at 404 North Kleas. It’s only for the residents of Edna, and one must show identification.
Note that it is a drop-off site only.
Accepted items: passenger tires only, no rims, furniture, mattresses, bags of leaves, carpet, appliances, outdoor toys, car batteries, household items, plumbing fixtures, metal, and fiberglass insulation.
They will NOT accept 18-wheeler tractor tires, televisions, smoke alarms or detectors, same with fire alarms, hazardous chemicals, large pieces of concrete, limbs, dirt, household trash or computers.
Call Samantha or Sonya at 361-782-3122 for more information.
Ganado’s community clean-up begins on Saturday, July 12. Beginning at 9 a.m. and ending at 4 p.m., check in at the Ganado High School football field, 800 West Sutherland. The idea is to gather acceptable bulk items in one’s home, and bring said bulk items to the address listed.
Acceptable items include: furniture, mattresses, washers, dryers, refrigerators, drained water heaters, BBQ grills but no fuel tanks, carpeting cut into four foot bundles, sinks, and toilets.
Prohibited items: anything generated by a contractor or business, batteries, electronics, concrete, brick, asphalt, roofing material, construction debris, gasoline, oil, filters, paint or stain products, tires and vehicle parts, and appliances containing freon.

Let’s keep our county towns clean so Jackson is a place we’re all happy to live in.
