Did you know that the City of Calgary helps support community associations in helping residents clean up the neighbourhood? Residents can attend their Community Cleanup event and throw out waste, saving you a trip to the landfill.
The service is free, and the purpose is for items that are not acceptable or do not fit in the regular waste (black carts) and recycling (blue carts) to be taken during a Community Cleanup. You can call your community association or go online to the official City of Calgary website to find a cleanup near you!
- Acceptable items include:
- Furniture
- Yard waste (organic trucks will be available)
- Broken/unusable products like gym equipment
- Toilets
You and your neighbours can also organize a litter clean up. The City of Calgary provide kits that include garbage bags, gloves and hand sanitizer. You can pick up these kits at any City of Calgary leisure and aquatic centre.
You can get outside, meet neighbours and achieve a cleaner community at the same time!
Happy Spring Cleaning!
