Communities around Niverville and the RM of Ritchot are hosting several spring clean-up days in the coming weeks. A series of community garage sales will also take place in early May.  

The annual Niverville Community Garage Sale will occur May 3–4, with individual residents around town hosting their own sales. Maps of all the sales are available at the Town of Niverville’s website to help people with route planning. 

Niverville’s annual Free Giveaway Day will be held on May 5. On this day, residents are encouraged to move items to the curb of their property and clearly label them as free. 

St. Adolphe will holding its own town-wide garage sale the following weekend. Maps will be available for pick-up at the Esso station. New Bothwell’s community garage sale is scheduled for later in the month, on Saturday, May 25, and will last from 9:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m. 

Niverville will launch into its clean-up days on May 10–11 from 8:00 a.m. until 8:00 p.m.  

“Niverville residents will have the opportunity to dispose of larger items normally not picked up during regular weekly waste collection by bringing them to the Bristal Hauling yard,” says a message on the Niverville Recreation website. Large items that can be disposed of during these two days include tires, propane tanks, and appliances. Freezers and fridges will cost $20 to dispose, with all other appliances being free of charge. An extensive list of accepted items is available on the Niverville Recreation website. 

In conjunction with the clean-up days, the Niverville Credit Union is hosting a free-document shredding even on May 11 from 10 a.m. until 2:00 pm in their parking lot on Main Street.
