Mayor's Neighborhood Cleanup

The Mayor's Neighborhood Cleanup Program is a concentrated sweep through a selected neighborhood each month focusing on cleaning up litter and removing abandoned vehicles.

Citizens are encouraged to participate in the mayor's neighborhood clean up, which is organized by sanitation services and fleet management and includes volunteers from Keep Pensacola Beautiful.

How the Program Works

The city’s neighborhood cleanup program was first implemented in the 1990s as a way of providing residents with a focused and organized cleanup effort. In 2011 that program was reinvented as the Mayor’s Neighborhood Cleanup program, when it was expanded to include all city neighborhoods with a cleanup once a year.

Through the Mayor's Neighborhood Cleanup program, all city neighborhoods have a cleanup once a year during the months of January through October. In addition to Sanitation Services collecting items left at the curb, Code Enforcement conducts a sweep of the cleanup area and addresses any code violations. 

When cleaning day arrives, sanitation services employees will collect material placed curbside.

The next Mayor's Neighborhood Cleanup will be on Saturday, Sept. 23 in a portion of the Scenic Heights neighborhood and Spanish Trail area. Please see the cleanup map for details
