Mesa residents interested in hosting a community cleanup event in their neighborhood are invited to submit their application for the Neighborhood Cleanup Program. Under this program, the City of Mesa is able to provide large trash and green waste recycling containers to allow residents to clean their yards, remove litter from the neighborhood and haul off old furniture, mattresses and other unsightly debris.

Cleanup events are scheduled on a first come, first serve basis; subject to container availability.

Items accepted in the Neighborhood Cleanup Program container

30-yd roll-off container - 6' x 22' x 8'

• Bagged or Boxed Trash
• Unusable Furniture
• Mattresses / Box Springs
• Toys / Swing Sets / Junk
• Non-Repairable Items (e.g.-bicycles, bbq grills, etc.)

To prevent odors, please do not place food waste in the trash container.

Container reminders:

• Items placed in the green waste container should not be bagged.
• Oleanders, cacti, palm fronds and palm trees are not accepted in the green waste container.
• For your safety, please do not enter or drive vehicles into containers.

How can I request this program for my neighborhood?

Each cleanup requires a designated person from the neighborhood to fill out the application form to initiate the Neighborhood Cleanup Program request process. To simplify the program, the collection of signatures is no longer required but this person will be responsible for the following:

• Completing a Neighborhood Cleanup Program roll-off service agreement
• Working with the City of Mesa Neighborhood Cleanup Coordinator to ensure a successful event in your neighborhood
