Heavy Trash pickup

The following was sent to me from our neighborhood liaison, Tonya Beeler, regarding a neighbor's request for clarification on heavy trash:

Each Indianapolis household may place a maximum of two (2) items of heavy trash out for collection each month.Place all items on a stable surface and secure or remove loose parts such as doors or trim. For example, remove the doors to a refrigerator or secure them with tape to prevent children or pets from being trapped inside.

Acceptable heavy trash items:

St. Clair Place neighborhood revitalization

Throughout 2009, there were several public input sessions to discuss the future of St. Clair Place and how we would like to see revitalization in our neighborhood. Indy-east Asset Development ("I-AD") and their partners listened closely to what we loved about our neighborhood and how we hoped to improve it. They created a Gameplan that will guide the future of revitalization in our neighborhood.
