The City’s annual Neighborhood Cleanup begins Monday, Jan. 29, providing curbside removal of large, unwanted items.

Conducted in addition to normal solid waste pickups, City of Yuma Public Works crews will make weekly rounds through City of Yuma neighborhoods and collect bulky items such as broken furniture, appliances, tree trimmings and bagged lawn clippings.

The annual program runs late January through early April. Each of the 10 areas of the City has one designated week for the curbside collection of these ordinary household bulk items. For residents' convenience, descriptions and maps of these 10 areas are available on the City's website at www.yumaaz.gov/neighborhoodcleanup.

The first pickup zone is the area from Colorado Street to West Main Canal and Avenue A to west City limits.

If your area’s designated week passes and pickup has not taken place, please leave your materials at the curb.

The City of Yuma Neighborhood Cleanup program is for residents inside the Yuma city limits only. There is no additional fee.

Material that qualifies as household hazardous waste, such as old chemicals, paints, pesticides, fertilizers, batteries and electronic waste, should be delivered to Household Hazardous Waste drop-off events.

Examples of items that will be accepted:

Old furniture, mattresses, carpets, and appliances; lawn clippings that are bagged; tree limbs that are no longer than 4 feet in length, tied and bundled and weigh no more than 50 pounds; five tires without rims per residential location (please, no commercial or farm tires).

Examples of items that will not be accepted:

Roofing and construction material; tree stumps; concrete or dirt; household hazardous waste such as motor oil, pesticides, and other chemicals; tires with rims; abandoned or commercial vehicles or farm equipment; commercial dumping.

Please follow these rules:

- Place all items at the curb for collection at the beginning of your neighborhood's designated week.
- Please do not block or place items near trash containers and water meters.
- Loose items must be bagged, boxed or tied, and must be easily handled by two people (not to exceed 50 lbs.).
- Place appliances, tires, bound limbs, and miscellaneous items into separate piles for easier handling.
  Each of these piles will be handled by a separate crew.
- Please do not place items in alleys; the only exception is for homes facing Avenue A.
- Be sure to keep any items that you do not want removed well away from the curbs and rights of way surrounding
   your home.

Residents may call 928-373-4504 or email solidwaste@yumaaz.gov for questions about Neighborhood Cleanup.
