Rt. 67 - is being emptied practically every other day, according to Boonsboro Recycling Task Force members who monitor the Dumpster and the grounds on a daily basis.

HAGERSTOWN - The City of Hagerstown has canceled this fall's Dumpster Program. For each of the last several years, the city has held two Dumpster Programs, one in the fall and one in the spring, so residents could dump large items of trash at the vacant lot near the intersection of Memorial Boulevard and South Potomac Street, said Eric Deike, the city's public works director. The city hauled the trash to a landfill. Deike said Hagerstown officials decided to cancel this fall's Dumpster Program because the city spent close to $100,000 last year to hold the event.
