Overland Park, KS - Overland Park's annual large item trash cleanup begins the first Saturday in April for residents living east of Antioch.

"This is probably one of the most popular city services we offer each year," said Jim Twigg, environmental programs coordinator. "The city receives lots of calls in anticipation of the three-weekend event."

Each year Overland Park alternates east and west of Antioch for residents to participate. In 2010, residents living west of Antioch were able to set out items.

More than 1.7 million pounds of material were collected in 2010; 2.5 million pounds in 2009.

Three weekends have been designated. Where a resident lives will determine which weekend is applicable. All items for disposal must be at the curb no later than 7 a.m. the day of the scheduled pick up. No special arrangements will be made once the crews have completed a neighborhood.trash at the curb for large item trash pick up.
