Murrieta Hosts Bulky Item Drop-Off Event Saturday

MURRIETA, CA — Murrieta neighbors will have a chance Saturday to drop off appliances and other large items that can be tricky to discard.

The city has partnered with Waste Management to host the biannual event outside City Hall, where neighbors can safely dispose of old washing machines, computers, grills, furniture and other bulky items. Attendees can also bring any documents they would like to have shredded.
