The residents of Hancock will be cleaning up their city over the next couple days.
Spring Cleanup is being held today and tomorrow, allowing residents to bring debris to the Public Works Garage each day between 9am and 6pm.
The DPW storage site will have restricted access and the site will be closed for debris drop off except for those times.
Any debris left at the gate area will be treated as a littering offense by the City.
Debris can include items such as old furniture, lumber and small metal items.
Residents are limited to four cubic yards of material per household or facility.
Only two box springs or mattresses will be accepted per household or facility.
So-called white goods will be accepted by the city, including refrigerators, freezers, washers, dryers and microwaves.
Scrap metal–such as steel, iron, copper, brass and aluminum–will be accepted including bicycles, lawn mowers, and snow blowers.
However, paints, oils, tires and batteries will not be accepted.
The garage will accept items from Hancock city residents only and proof of residency, such as a driver’s license, will be required.
