Tire and scrap metal cleanup to take place in Spencer

On Saturday, May 28 from 8 a.m. to noon, a tire and scrap metal cleanup for Town and Village of Spencer residential households will take place at the North Spencer Transfer Station located on Hillview Road between Route 96 and Michigan Hollow (use the Angelo Gravel Co. entrance and keep to the right).

The cleanup is being held to minimize potential areas for mosquitoes to reproduce and reduce health-related problems transmitted through insects and vermin and to assist in beautifying the Village and Town of Spencer.

There will be no charge of tires. Larger tires will require residents to help load tires. Clean scrap metal will also be accepted at no charge. Proof of Town or Village of Spencer residency is required.

The cleanup is being hosted by the Tioga County Department of Solid Waste, and is funded by Upstate Shredding-Ben Weitsman.
