Heart of Lubbock Clean-Up Happens This Saturday, July 18th

The City of Lubbock will provide resources this Saturday (July 18th) from 8 a.m. to noon at Redeemer Lutheran Church (2221 Ave W) for a neighborhood clean-up in the Heart of Lubbock neighborhood (think 34thish and Avenue Q ish).

This is an excellent opportunity to get rid of most trash that is not suitable for a dumpster. So that stanky old mattress can finally retire.

Volunteers and folks who bring in stuff to throw away are required to wear masks. A very limited supply will be available if you don't have one.

There are some items that are not suitable for the cleanup that still require you to go to the city dump, though -- tires, air conditioners, shingles, etc.

This is an excellent opportunity to clear alleyways and to ensure you're not violating city codes, which can come with a hefty ticket.

If you would like to request a clean up for your neck of the woods, you can do so the City of Lubbock's website.
