Collections sites set up June 12 for moving WWU students

The Move-Out Madness event will offer three collection sites for students who want to donate household items, furniture, appliances and nonperishable food. There also will be bins for recyclable items and landfill waste.

Bellingham Public Works staff will monitor the sites.

York Neighborhood: Franklin Park, 400 block of Whatcom Street.

Sehome Neighborhood: Laurel Park, Laurel and Indian streets.
