Garbage Collection Reminders

To help Rumpke as they collect garbage throughout the village, we would like to share some reminders.

  1. Carpets and rugs need to be cut into 3 foot to 4 foot sections and placed to the curb.
  2. Couches and mattresses need to be wrapped in a plastic covering.
  3. Garbage cans are to be placed to the curb no earlier than 3pm the day before collection and must be taken in by midnight on the day of collection.

Cleves Police Kudos

My name is John Burden. The reason for this email - Saturday 12/29/2012 I had a flat tire while driving through Cleves. I parked and started to change the flat. When I removed my spare tire it too was flat. I proceeded to roll the spare to the gas station to fill it up. while going there officer McDonald pulled over and asked if I could use a hand. I said I sure could and officer McDonald drove me and my tire to the gas station. He also volunteered to change it for me but I didn’t let him. I told him he would get dirty and that he’s still on duty. He said that it didn’t matter.
