🌿 More on Yard Waste Pickup 🌿 We recently shared yard waste guidelines (see our earlier post if you missed it), but here’s a quick reminder about pickup logistics: Your weekly trash service includes up to 6 cubic yards of yard waste — about the size of a pickup truck bed. If you have more than that, here are your options: - Put out 6 cubic yards each week — it’ll be picked up for free - Put it all out at once and pay WastePro for the extra load - Haul the excess debris to a local disposal site 📞 Heads up: If you're placing yard waste at the curb, call Public Works at least one day in advance at (901) 867-4980. The claw truck doesn’t hit every street daily, so a heads-up helps ensure timely pickup. Thanks for helping us keep the Town clean and running smoothly!

📚 Storytime with a Side of Sirens! 📚 This morning, AFD made a special stop at the Forrest Street Pavilion to join in on story time with local author Becky Thomas ! Mrs. Thomas was there promoting her delightful children’s book series starring Roscoe the Rooster — a bossy barnyard bird with plenty of personality. The crew loved being part of this story time, and we think Roscoe might have a new fan base in the firehouse now! Big thanks to the Arlington Library for hosting this fun event and to Becky for sharing her stories with the community. Check out a few photos of the crew hanging out with the kids, the author, and of course, Roscoe!

🚧 Road Work Alert: Milton Wilson & Airline Road🚧 Town contractors should wrap up paving on Milton Wilson Blvd this Wednesday and begin the road marking/striping process. Crews will then move to Airline Road to patch several spots between Memphis-Arlington and Will Harris Road.

Impacts will include lane shifts & traffic control measures, but no full closures. Always stay alert and use extra caution in work zones.
