Roadrunner Classified Advertising Policy

From time to time, a municipality may find itself with a surplus piece of specialized equipment of potential use only to another municipality. Similarly, you may want to find another municipality that has a surplus piece of equipment that you would purchase. A way of advertising that targets municipalities, and particularly public works departments, would be useful.

The Roadrunner is prepared to provide advertising space to members in a column similar to this one. The fee will be $100 for a one column ad as long as the length is not excessive. Because the Roadrunner is published only three times per year, this advertising will be useful only for those ads that are not time critical. Normal publication dates are mid March, June and October. Deadlines are the first of each of those months.

Any advertising purchased for this column will also be inserted free into the PWABC Web page at www.bc.cpwa.net

Questions or ad copy may be directed to:
