Community Clean Up

Want to make a friendly challenge between your group and another to increase motivation to get the trash picked up? Let us know, well include it in the press release! For the past number of years, Community Clean Up was a major program for Communities in Bloom.  Your involvement in this year's Community Clean Up can help!

The fifth annual 20 Minute Community Make-Over was held on Friday, April 1st, 2011 at 10:00am.  Learn how successful the event was by viewing a news release.  It's all part of Community Clean Up Month in the Central Okanagan and the Regional Waste Reduction Office encourages your participation by providing the trash collection bags and gloves and arranges the pick up of the collected garbage after the event. 

Community Clean Up Any Time Of The Year!

Are you looking for a fun, quick way to make a difference in the community? Maybe you need school community hours? Do you need an activity for your next block party or a project for your family? This year, why not volunteer to clean up litter in your park, neighbourhood, or roadway?

Its so easy to take part! 

Simply choose an area to clean then contact the Regional Waste Reduction Office to register.  We supply the garbage bags, gloves and other safety equipment you'll need.   Then pick up the litter in your area and call us when you're done.   We'll pick up the bags and take them to the landfill. Anyone can participate, any time of the year!

To register your group for the Community Clean Up simply email the Regional Waste Reduction Office (recycle@cord.bc.ca) or call at 250-469-6250.
