The Virgin Islands Waste Management Authority will conduct a Territory-wide Hurricane Residential White Goods and Bulk Waste cleanup from Saturday, Aug. 23, through Sunday, Aug. 31, operating daily from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m., according to a press release from the authority.
Residents may bring bulk waste such as furniture, mattresses, carpets, grills and other large household items, along with white goods including stoves, dryers, washing machines, refrigerators, water heaters and other appliances, to designated drop-off locations on each island, the press release stated.
Commercial waste, construction debris, electronic devices, fats, green waste, and used motor or cooking oil will not be accepted at bin sites, VIWMA officials said. Those materials must be taken to the landfills or transfer stations, where temporary suspensions may be in effect.
