Executive Insight

White County residents have always relied on our convenience centers to dispose of household garbage safely and efficiently. Recently, the closure of the convenience center at the landfill reduced options for disposal on Tuesdays and Thursdays, creating challenges for some families.

To address this, we are extending the operating hours at the Cassville Convenience Center to include Tuesdays and Thursdays, starting today. This change not only restores flexibility but increases the hours of operation and ensures that everyone has greater access to waste disposal during the week.

Adding these two days will help ease weekend congestion and provide working residents more opportunities to keep their homes and our county clean. This change is part of a plan to overhaul the whole convenience center system county wide. Proper waste management is essential for health, safety, and the quality of life we all enjoy in White County.

Thank you for your patience as we work through these adjustments. Your feedback matters, and this improvement reflects our commitment to listening and responding to community needs. If you have questions or suggestions, please contact my office. Together, we’ll keep White County a great place to live, work, and raise a family.

Also, I wanted to do a quick reminder, the intersection of Highway 70 and Highway 136 at O.T. Jones Crossroads is now a four-way stop. Please use caution and obey the new traffic pattern for everyone’s safety.

Thanks, D.W.
