Information about participation in the city's Neighborhood Clean-Up program formerly known as residential Clean Sweep / Green Sweep. This program has benefited residents wishing to clean up portions of their neighborhood. A 30-yard roll-off container is typically used for neighborhood clean up events. The program is funded by a portion of the Mesa Green and Clean Fee and eligible Mesa residents can schedule a neighborhood cleanup event once every 12 months. In addition to resident or Homeowner Association initiated clean-up events, the city also initiates neighborhood clean up efforts in partnership with volunteer groups, PD, Fire or Code Officers. Location information is summarized to the 100-block level and is not an exact location where the clean up event took place.
