The City of Grand Junction has scheduled its annual spring cleanup program for April 3 to 15.

The free program offers residents an opportunity to dispose of yard waste and unusable household items.

For residents north of North Avenue, pickup is scheduled to start at 6:30 a.m. April 3. For residents south of North Avenue, including those in the Orchard Mesa and Redlands areas, pickup is scheduled to start at 6:30 a.m. April 10.

Residents should pile yard waste and other items against the street gutter in front of their homes, but at least 3 feet away from buildings, fences, mailboxes and cars. Residents also are encouraged to donate or recycle unwanted items.
