A reminder that Boston Shines cleanup is this Saturday (4/24). While we don’t have a neighborhood-organized cleanup, feel free to clean up your own space, or get together with your neighbors and clean up your section of the block.
If you need some tools, the city will have brooms, shovels, rakes, gloves, and trash bags available to be borrowed from 9am to 1pm. Just stop by the BCA Plaza.
If you want to clean up your sidewalk of dirt and tree droppings, sweep it into the middle of the street – street sweepers will be making the rounds throughout the day. (of course, bag your trash, don’t sweep it into the street)
The city will also pick up trash until noon on Saturday. Leave bags of trash you have collected on a corner so the DPW can easily see the bags. Now remember this is trash you’ve cleaned up from outside – this is not a chance to clean out the basement and attic. DPW won’t take your junk (sorry).
We hope the sunshine will inspire you to take some time to help clean up on Saturday morning!!
