Douglas Dump Day


Published/Last Modified on Tuesday, March 17, 2009 12:06 PM MDT


Spring cleaning projects are well underway throughout the city.  These efforts  not only include the city’s efforts on cleaning up debri and trash from the alleys but residents preparing their residences for spring and summer outdoor activities.


In an effort to facilitate this clean-up, the City of Douglas and Cochise County is scheduling a FREE DUMP DAY for Saturday, March 28, 2009, from 7:30 to 3:00 at the Douglas Transfer Station located on 90 W. 9th Street.

As a reminder, as outlined in Section 8 Title 8.16 of the Douglas Municipal Code and as a way to demonstrate our community’s pride and social responsibility we as citizens need to keep our neighborhoods clean.  This includes keeping the public right-of-way clean in front or adjacent to our property as well as maintaining the alleyways behind our property and ensuring these areas are free of weeds and litter.

In addition, we need to secure our garbage containers with lids to minimize the amount of litter that is scattered by unattended cats and dogs.

If you have any questions or require any additional information as it pertains to Code Enforcement please contact the Community Development Department at 417-7310 and the Public Works Department at 417-7329.
