The Highland County Health Department has scheduled six Dumpster days events for 2025.

As the weather warms up, it’s the perfect time to shake off the winter blues and dive into some good old-fashioned spring cleaning – whether it’s your garage, basement, attic, shed, or backyard! To make it easier for you to clear out the clutter, the Health Department is excited to host free Dumpster days events again this year, as follows:

April 15 & 16, 2025 from 9am-4pm at the Highland County Health Department;

These are first-come, first-served events. Once the Dumpsters are full, the event will be finished.
