To each member and volunteer who participated in Dumpster Day #1, we want to express our heartfelt appreciation. Your enthusiasm, hard work, and unwavering commitment to making our community a better place is truly commendable. 

Foxridge Improvement Association will hold a second Dumpster Day Plus event on Sat, Sept 30 th from 8:30 to noon. Please note that there will be only two dumpsters available since we will also have metal recycling, e-recycling, and Goodwill of Colorado. In addition, we will hold a yard waste composting event in November, date TBD.

Many thanks to Metrum Community Credit Union for the partial sponsorship for the e-recycling!

​

This will be an excellent opportunity for Foxridge residents to clear out their clutter and dispose of unwanted items in an environmentally responsible manner. This community event has become a tradition that not only helps create a cleaner neighborhood but also encourages sustainable practices. For the past few dumpster day events Foxridge has been able to reduce the number of dumpster truck rolls to landfills. This was done with the spirit of continuous improvement and community collaboration. Foxridge Improvement Association (FIA) partnered with Goodwill of Colorado for items that can be repurposed or were in good condition for reuse. FIA also partnered with a young metal recycler who harvested metal objects.
