DUMPSTERS ARE EMPTY & NOW AVAILABLE AGAIN AT ALL LOCATIONS
Dear Fort Wright Residents,
In response to the significant storm damage experienced throughout our community, the City of Fort Wright is taking additional steps to assist residents with storm debris cleanup efforts.
Beginning in the afternoon on 08/14/2026, the City will have dumpsters available at the following locations for a limited time to allow residents to dispose of storm related debris:
- South Hills Civic Club – 10 Bluegrass
- Volunteer Park – 35 Park Road
- Former Fort Wright Civic Club – 115 Kennedy
These dumpsters are intended ONLY for storm-related tree and yard debris, such as downed tree limbs, branches, and leaves.
Please do not place the following materials in the dumpsters, as you may be subject to dumping fines and disposal fees:
- Used tires
- White goods, such as refrigerators, washers, dryers, or other appliances
- Household garbage or other household waste
- Hazardous materials such as batteries, oil, or paint
- Materials unrelated to storm-related tree and yard cleanup
Rumpke Waste Collection
Residents may also place storm-related tree and brush material at the curb for collection by Rumpke at no additional charge. To ensure that the material can be safely collected, all tree and brush material must be:
- Bundled securely
- No more than five (5) feet in length
- No more than eighteen (18) inches in diameter
Please place these bundled materials at the curb next to your trash cans on your normal collection day. Please do NOT obstruct streets, sidewalks, storm drains, or other public areas.
