Here is the info on the Annual Community Clean 2026

April 25^thSaturday and April 26^thSunday, at McGowan Park (South end of 142nd Ave) from 9:00 am to 4:00 pm on Saturday and Sunday from 9:00 am until all dumpsters are full, or 4:00 pm, which ever happens first. 

Rules are simple:  Only one (1) load per lot will be allowed until 12:00 noon on Sunday.  If the dumpsters are not yet full at that time, then any lot – on a first come basis – may bring another load until all dumpsters are filled. 

You must check in with a volunteer before dumping your items.

To check in you will need to know your lot number or your address as identification.  Only community members may participate. They can help you on-site, but bring your LOT number with you.

NO household garbage (food waste, etc.), yard waste, animal waste, tires, microwaves, TVs or any electrical appliances, computers, printers or fax machines, or paint cans  (unless the cans are dried out), or any type of accelerants are allowed.  No large furniture such as couches, stuffed chairs, bed frames, etc. or mattresses. 

To ensure proper disposal, rubbish will be checked prior to dumping.  If you have any questions about what is allowed to be dumped, please check with the attendants before unloading.

There will be a separate trailer for Metal items (i.e. appliances, lawn mowers, etc.) check before putting in dumpsters. Lawn mowers must have the oil and gas REMOVED prior to leaving on trailer.

Please Note:  You do not need to be current in your assessments to come to the Clean Up. If you know a member who has rubbish, but is unable to bring it due to medical issues or lack of a vehicle, please call contact call Dave Tyler (253) 732-3683 and prior to the clean-up so we can make pickup arrangements, if we have volunteers who will do this.

This year we are taking car batteries – have them set on the driveway behind the dumpsters.
