Day. |
The Citywide Home Cleanup Day provides North Myrtle Beach residents
with an opportunity to clean out their closets, attics, garages, and storage
sheds. During the event, residents may discard unwanted items, including
appliances, TVs, furniture, paint, pesticides, chemicals, oil, old tires and
more. However, no construction debris or medical waste will be accepted.
Furniture, Appliances, Bulky Items: The City
provides a special collection service for furniture, appliances and other bulky
items. These items should be placed at curbside for pickup. This service is not
regularly scheduled but is provided on an as-needed basis. Please call the
Sanitation Division at (843) 280-5500 prior to placing such items at curbside
to ensure prompt pickup.
Other Items: Residents must transport all other items to the North
Myrtle Beach Sanitation Department Transfer Station located on 2nd Avenue
South. (Once on 2nd Avenue South drive toward the Intracoastal Waterway past City Hall and the Aquatic & Fitness
Center. The drop off site is on the right hand side of 2nd Avenue South.)
Usable Furniture & Appliances: Please consider donating unwanted usable furniture and appliances
to the Salvation Army, Goodwill Industries or local churches. Many of these
organizations will pick up items to be donated.
The Keep North Myrtle Beach
Beautiful Commission offers a community-based volunteer program to educate and
empower the North Myrtle Beach community to personally improve the environment
and enhance quality of life and community pride through beautification, litter
prevention and recycling.
