RESIDENTIAL STREET SWEEPING
Residential sweeping begins every spring and typically ends in early July. This annual program is designed to ensure clean and environmentally friendly neighborhood streets. Each year, crews sweep over 4,100 miles of residential roadways and remove around 1,000 tons of debris.
Note: The 2026 Residential Sweeping Program is underway. Please check below to see the approximate 2026 dates for sweeping in your area. Signs have been posted in Zones 53, 48, and 2.
Please note that "No Parking" signs will be posted in most sweeping neighborhoods. Not every pole or every street will have a sign. Cars will not be towed for the sweeping program. However, sweeping trucks cannot return to re-sweep areas where cars were parked. Click on "Additional Information" below for additional Parking suggestions.
