Apply today for 2015 Tacoma Community Cleanup Program

Tacoma residents can apply today to participate in the City of Tacoma’s 2015 Community Cleanup Program.

The program offers each neighborhood area one cleanup day per calendar year, and up to 16 cleanup days throughout the city. The City provides dumpsters for residential customers who live in single-family homes or duplexes on their neighborhood’s day to spruce up their properties and save a trip to the Tacoma Recovery & Transfer Center.

“The program is a great resource for neighborhoods to use,” said City of Tacoma Community Based Services Manager Lisa Wojtanowicz. “Community cleanups provide residents an opportunity to dispose of large or awkward items and clean up in and around their homes for free.”

Residents interested in applying for their neighborhood can print the form online at cityoftacoma.org/communitycleanup. Completed forms need to be returned by Mon., Feb. 9, 2015, to Community Based Services Community Cleanup, 747 Market St., Room 108, Tacoma, WA 98402. Applications also can be faxed to (253) 573-2585 or scanned and emailed to cdegrosse@cityoftacoma.org.

For more information, contact Neighborhood and Community Services at (253) 591-5026 or cdegrosse@cityoftacoma.org.
