The City of Reno is announcing the dates of its upcoming fall clean-ups. The City is partnering with Hero Environmental Services, Redwood Materials, ComputerCorps, and other local nonprofits to help residents properly discard of household hazardous waste, electronic, and junk items during these clean-ups.
“This is a great opportunity for residents to pitch in and help keep our community clean this fall,” said Reno Mayor Hillary Schieve. “It’s a great time to clean up and get rid of excess waste. We all play a role in keeping our city clean and beautiful, and these events are accessible for residents all over the city.”
Residents can participate by bringing the appropriate waste accepted at each event, or by contributing volunteer time. Residents can also sign up to volunteer here.
Community members should note that once the bins are full, they will be turned away. Below, you will find a full list of dates and sites for clean-ups in fall 2023.
