Neighborhood Cleanup Program

Join forces with your neighbors to enhance your neighborhood's cleanliness! The City of Santa Ana’s Neighborhood Cleanup Program provides residents an opportunity to properly dispose of bulky items that do not fit in their residential trash cart or bin. It also welcomes neighborhoods to organize a community cleanup to improve the appearance of their neighborhood.

Each fiscal year (July 1 – June 30), the City of Santa Ana in partnership with Republic Services, offer up to five (5) large 40-yard roll-off containers, free of charge, to neighborhoods, Homeowner Associations (HOAs), and mobile home parks for Saturday hosted events.

Any neighborhood associations, Homeowner Associations (HOAs), or mobile home parks located within the city limits qualify for this program. Cleanups must be organized by authorized neighborhood representatives or HOA/mobile home park leaders. Homeowners shall not use this program for private use (i.e., home remodeling/improvements).

If this is the first time you are organizing a cleanup, here are sample documents that you can print out and present to your neighbors as you generate interest in the event:

• Neighborhood Cleanup Program Overview & Procedures
• Neighborhood Cleanup Program Container Guidelines
• Neighborhood Cleanup Program 2025 Calendar
• Neighborhood Cleanup Program Sample Flyer (Coming Soon)
• Neighborhood Cleanup Program FAQ’s (Coming Soon)

To schedule a Neighborhood Cleanup, complete our online form with your details. Please submit your request at least three (3) weeks before your earliest desired cleanup date. A maximum of seven (7) containers are scheduled per Saturday and requests are scheduled on a first-come, first-served basis. A City representative will then reach out to you.

The City of Santa Ana’s Public Works Agency (PWA) in partnership with Republic Services, will be hosting quarterly neighborhood cleanup days throughout the city in an effort to help residents properly dispose of bulky items such as furniture, mattresses, carpets, and non-donatable clothes, bedding, books, or toys. These events will be free to Santa Ana residents and no appointment will be necessary. Proof of Santa Ana residency will be required.
