What is and What is Not Accepted?

​​

Thank you for being our customer! Unfortunately there are some items we simply cannot accept as we are unallowed to dump them along with typical rubbish into the landfill. These items are: 

​

  • Grass clippings, leaves, gravel, stone, dirt, ashes

  • Demolition and construction building products such as wood, drywall, shingles, or windows (home remodeling items)

  • Car batteries, oil, or tires 

  • Any liquid paints, sealants or stains

  • Fitness equipment 

  • TVs, computers or electronics - contact Westmoreland Cleanways 724-879-4020 | Westmorelandcleanways.org

  • Washer/dryer, stove, refrigerators, grills

  • Couches with metal frames (includes sleeper sofas), rolled carpeting, mattresses or box springs 

​​

Most of our stops are handpicked meaning the toter is either tipped or bags physically removed by hand. Because of this loose trash will not be taken. Your items must be bagged or bundled. Small shopping bags are not suggested as they often end up in the bottom of the toter and never make it out. 

​

Kitty litter is a common item and accepted. However, please remember this can get very heavy if simply dumped into a single trash can. Individual bags (not small shopping bags) of reasonable weights are appreciated! 

​

The best course of action if you are EVER unsure, is to call us at 724-424-3031 at least 1 business day ahead of schedule. If we are able to pick it up, we can make accommodations if notified in advance. Thank you!

​

​Where to Take Items We Do NOT Accept?

 

For items listed above, there are options. Please consider the following.

​

Lightly-used furniture, clothing, household appliances that still work (always call first).

​

​

 

Electronics, bulbs/fixtures, glass, tires & more.

​

​

 

Scrap Metal, old non-working appliances, unusable furniture, etc.

​

  • Facebook will be your best friend for these items. Look to local pages or consider posting                                                          on Marketplace. There are many smaller haulers that do this for a few bucks or even free!
