The free tipping offers an opportunity for residents of Adair County to dispose of unwanted items and materials. The free tipping is done with the funding of the PRIDE organization.



"Due to funding reduction there will not be dumpsters or a Saturday clean-up. We hope that additional funding will be available in the fall," Lisa Lee, co-chair of PRIDE in Adair County said.

The items which will not be accepted: Tires, Any Hazardous Materials, Dirt, Concrete, Rocks, acetylene, oxygen, propane, or any other tank; steel cables, capacitors.

Paint will be accepted, only if it has been dried with either sand and/or cat litter.

Personnel will be on-site to help with unloading, and will have sign-in sheets for PRIDE, please make sure to sign the paper, according to the number of signatures we may be able to increase our funding for the fall.
