Spring 2024 Dumpster Day
Saturday, June 1 from 9AM- 2PM
DHPO Neighbors:
The DHPO is sponsoring a Spring 2024 Dumpster Day for the Deerfield community residents in hopes that it provides homeowners property clean up and get rid of some materials they might not be able to take to the dump. This will be a one-day event where active members (for free) can bring their extra trash they might not get rid of on a weekly basis.
Non-members will be invited as well for the fee of $300.00.
We will provide two 30-yard dumpsters delivered to the Cul-de-sac locations in Deerfield, at the end of Moose Circle and Fawn Circle (Deerfield Filings I & II). When each dumpster is filled, then no further collections will be accepted. All debris must be loaded under the loading level of the dumpster (top edge of dumpster).
There are a few guidelines as to what will be accepted by the dumpster Company. Hazardous materials are not accepted. The dumpsters will be attended by BOARD & ECC members and any fellow residents who can volunteer to assist. Dumpsters will be removed the same day in order to prevent non accepted material from being dumped at night.
Restricted Items: 5,000 pound weight limit.
Due to weight limit restrictions, we do not accept: Heavy debris (concrete, rock, sod, dirt, asphalt, asphalt shingles, manure, blocks, rocks, gravel or plaster). Additional fees will be incurred if the dumpster exceeds the weight limit.
· NO Household Chemicals - Hazardous Materials (buckets or containers of paint, oil, antifreeze, fuels oil-based paint, mercury, gasoline, degreasers, cleaning compounds, and garden chemicals.
· NO Car batteries, tires, appliances, household chemicals, electronics (TV's, printers, monitors, computers, etc.) Additional fees will incur if hazardous materials are disposed in the dumpster.
· See https://cdphe.colorado.gov/hm/household-haz-waste-collection for additional information on where to alternately dispose of these type materials.
· NO tree slash, limbs, etc. will be allowed. The Castle Rock Slash/Mulch site located at 1400 Caprice Drive is now open Saturdays only through October 30 for the 2024 season from 8 a.m. - 5 p.m. Tree limbs, shrubs, and brush with a maximum length of 6 feet and a maximum of 12 inches. Loose pine needles are accepted but must be kept separate from other items. All loads must be covered when they arrive at the site. https://www.douglas.co.us/building-division/wildfire-mitigation/slash-mulch-program/

Such programs as the ongoing Fire Mitigation Grant program would have not been possible if the DHPO organization did not exist, as this and other opportunities require a community organizations to quality, rather than individual property owners acting separately.
