SANITATION

The Sanitation Team
The District Sanitation Team (affectionately referred to as the “Clean Team” is a small group of dedicated staff members who are on the streets every working day endeavoring to keep our neighborhoods clean, pleasant in appearance, and welcoming to residents and visitors alike. 

The primary functions of the Sanitation Team are to:

• Proactively clean in the post areas during each work day.  Team members clean sidewalks,  street gutters, storm drains, sewer wells, and tree wells.
• Respond to requests for special services throughout the District.
• Attack "hot spots" which are areas that consistently need special attention caused by illegal trash dumping.  (See the Sanitation Team FAQs page for more info on this significant problem).
• Haul trash and other debris to city solid waste disposal facilities.
• Provide sanitation services for community events as requested.

The Clean Team is prohibited by the Department of Public Works from:

• Removing garbage and materials from private property.
• Removing large appliances, tires, construction materials, hazardous waste, or large tree branches.
