Adopt-A-Street

The Adopt-A-Street is designed to support litter control and storm water management throughout Arlington, while providing residents with an opportunity to do something positive for the community by volunteering to keep our neighborhood clean. Individuals or groups may "adopt" a specific section of road pledging to keep the street, curb, and storm drain free of trash and debris, for a commitment of 1 year with duties performed on a quarterly basis. In return, the Solid Waste Bureau provides free street cleaning supplies and sweeping debris pickup.

Duties:

Sweep the curb, gutter lines, and wheelchair accessibility ramps of the adopted street, on a quarterly basis.
Remove litter along the adopted street, on a quarterly basis or as needed.
Schedule a pick-up for sweeping debris to be collected by DES staff.
Update the tasks you completed of your street adopting duties, each quarter.
