From the time the first pollen puff hits the ground, you can tell spring is on the horizon. For many the cleaning supplies are coming out and it's time to clean up after a long winter. One Shelby County city that means an entire month devoted to helping it's citizens get ready for the warm weather.
The city of Alabaster is hosting it's Clean Sweep month in April. It is time for the city to 'clean up, clean out and haul off' their un-needed garbage. This time of the year is a great time for everyone to clean out closets, garages and junk drawers for a clean start. With the weather warming up by the day it defiantly makes it easier to make the change.
