Pima County Solid Waste Management Community Cleanup Program

Pima County Solid Waste Management (SWM) established the Community Cleanup Program to assist neighborhood groups in cleaning up solid waste.

The Community Cleanup Program is a service that is afforded to neighbors who want to beautify their area of Pima County in accordance with the procedures and rules described herein. This program is not intended to replace routine vegetation cleanup activities that are normally performed by individual property owners in the County, such as: tree or cactus removal; cutting and trimming; weeding; similar landscaping activities and generated solid waste materials.

The program, available to residential neighborhood groups, provides roll-off container drop-off and pickup service for one-day cleanup events. Refuse that has been placed in the roll-off by the group is removed from the neighborhood by County staff and disposed in a municipal solid waste landfill. This service is presently provided at no cost, provided the attached application is completed and the group conforms to the program procedures and rules.
