If you live in Mount Vernon, you can get a free new trash can.
The city is giving out 2,000 to homeowners as part of its waste sustainability plan.
Mayor Shawyn Patterson-Howard said the goal is to improve green spaces across the city and comply with federal and state guidelines.
The city hopes to implement a plastic bag-free policy next year.
Residents must complete a form on the Mount Vernon DPW website or call to sign up if they want a bin.
Up to 1 per household, first come first served.
They will be distributed the first week of December until supplies last.
