    Omaha Spring Cleanup continues to provide opportunities for bulky waste disposal for all city residents 79 cleanup sites scheduled during a six-week period in April and May to promote recycling and proper disposal resources For immediate release, OMAHA, Neb.: The Omaha Spring Cleanup, an annual event made possible through a 36-year partnership between the City of Omaha, Keep Omaha Beautiful (KOB), participating neighborhood associations, and local nonprofit and recycling entities, continues to offer waste disposal and recycling resources for Omaha residents. This year’s event takes place during six consecutive Saturdays from April 14 to May 19 for a total of 79 different cleanup sites throughout the city. Sites remain open from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. and accept large, bulky items that cannot be picked up via the regular curbside recycling/trash service (e.g., old couches, broken appliances, carpet, etc.). All Omaha residents can participate in the Omaha Spring Cleanup for free; they do not need to be an active member of the host neighborhood association. It is the responsibility of the resident to transport and unload the items at the respective site. Each week, there will be at least one specified location that will collect special, regulated items: tires, lead acid batteries, and appliances. These special items will only be accepted at their designated sites. Additional items that are not accepted include (but are not limited to) pesticides, concrete, and large rocks. Vouchers will be available at each site to dispose of yard waste at River City Recycling (60th & Harrison) or the Douglas County Landfill (Hwy 36 and 216th Street) on that date only.
