Warsaw offering residents Earth Week benefits next week

News Release

WARSAW — The city of Warsaw Public Works Department, along with Borden Waste Away Services/Integra and Waste Management, will be offering expanded services to its residents in celebration of Earth Week.

The following services will be made available to residents Monday, April 20, through Friday, April 24, according to a news release from the city:

• Loose Leaf Pickup: Large piles of leaves can be raked to the curb or alley. They will be picked up on your regular trash day and need to be out by 7 a.m. Do not put sticks or other trash in the leaf piles. Small piles will need to be bagged or boxed and will be picked up on your regular trash day.

As a reminder, leaves cannot be raked into the streets and gutter lines. This clogs the stormwater catch basins and creates drainage issues that can lead to flooding.

• Waste Management has offered to place four 30-yard containers at their local transfer station. Residents (IDs will be checked to verify addresses) can drop off items (not truckloads from rental property clean-outs) at no charge.

Waste Management will donate the dumping fees and is excited to offer residents assistance in disposing of their spring cleaning items. This service will be free of charge to the residents residing within the corporate city limits of Warsaw.

Waste Management’s transfer station is at 2352 N. Boeing Road, Warsaw. Their hours are 6 a.m. to 4 p.m.

• Borden Waste Away/Integra Shredding will host a community shred drive day. This will be a drive-through service.

Integra will have a shred truck at the Public Works Department, 794 W. Center St., on Tuesday, April 21, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. City employees will load your papers in totes and Integra will shred the documents on the spot.

• Paper Lawn & Leaf Bags: Paper lawn and leaf bags will be available for city residents to pick up at the Public Works Department, 794 W. Center St.

Residents (IDs will be checked to verify addresses) are invited to pick up six bundles of paper lawn and leaf bags to utilize for their natural debris pickup for 2026.

Hours for distribution will be regular business hours, which are 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday.
