Westover Hills Spring Neighborhood and Alley Clean Up

The Beautification Committee and our faithful volunteers will partner with the City of Richmond and be going through the alleys of Westover Hills the morning of Saturday, April 29 from 8:00 am to 12:00 pm picking up large yard debris, electronics, furniture, and items that are too big for normal trash collection. Get a jump start on your spring cleaning and place items outside for pickup.

Update: We are still looking for more volunteers for Saturday’s clean up! Please contact Robert Kelly if you can donate any of your Saturday morning to help out!

Please contact Robert Kelly at robmkelly1@gmail.com in advance if you wish to disregard an appliance, a “clunker” television, a grill, lawnmower, air conditioner or a large item which is better handled with lift or flat bed truck. Please no paint cans, old tires, or heavy construction materials.
