PUBLISHED: April 17, 2008

Van Buren Township officials have announced new guidelines for disposing of large quantities of trash. Large quantities of trash or remodeling materials will not be picked up at curbside.

Van Buren Township residents have the option to utilize the Woodland Meadows landfill located on the south side of Van Born Road, just west of Hannan Road.

The citizen drop off area is located on the south side or back of the site. All vehicles entering the site must check-in at the gatehouse.

Landfill hours are Monday

through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and Saturday from 7 a.m. to 11 a.m.

These are the guidelines for utilizing the Woodland Meadows landfill under the Van Buren resident agreement with Waste Management.

Starting May 1, 2008, residents must obtain a free disposal punch card from the Community Services Office, located in Township Hall, 46425 Tyler Road.

To obtain a punch card you must provide proof of residency (i.e. current drivers

license).

The punch card entitles Van Buren residents to twenty-four (24) free trips per year.

However, each address will only be allowed one card by the township per year.

A valid photo ID with matching address must be presented with the punch card at time of disposal.

This free dumping privilege cannot be extended to contractors or commercial vendors.

Commercial vehicles will be refused entry or must pay for disposal of waste.

The volume of waste per trip is limited to four (4) cubic yards.

To calculate cubic yards you can use the following formula: Length (ft.) X Width (ft.) X Height (ft.) ˜ 27 = cubic yards. If you exceed 4 cubic yards per trip, you will be refused entry or you must pay for disposal of the additional waste. Yard waste (compost, leaves, etc.) must be separated from household waste.

White goods will not be accepted at the landfill. White goods are any appliance that does or once did contain freon (air conditioning units, freezes, refrigerators and dehumidifiers.

Scrap tire disposal is limited to eight tires annually.

Recycling is also available at the citizen drop-off area.

For more information call 699-8926.
