Sioux Falls, SD (KELO AM) - Residents cleaning up from flood damage resulting from the August 27, 2015, severe weather event may dispose of flood-impacted household items and debris, at no charge, at the Sioux Falls Regional Sanitary Landfill through Saturday, September 12.
“It is important to begin home cleanup efforts as soon as possible, before water‑damaged items become a health concern,” says Mark Cotter, Director of Public Works. “We want to assist with that process by waiving Landfill entry fees for homeowners working to dispose of storm-related household debris.”
Impacted residents can bring household debris such as carpet, sheetrock, and furniture to the Landfill, located at 26750 464th Avenue, Hartford, SD. All loads must be tarped. The Landfill is open summer hours: Monday through Saturday, 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.; and closed Sundays.
Residents seeking free entry to the Landfill may be asked to provide their address and the type of materials being disposed. Loads larger than 5 cubic yards, or approximately the size of a medium tilt-bed trailer, will be required to pay the standard Landfill entry fees.
