The city is doing its part in pickin’ it up. We’ve been rolling out everything we’ve got—our street cleaners, demolition crews, and MadVacs in full force! Give them a wave in your neighborhood. We continue to install new trash receptacles throughout the city to make it convenient for residents to help keep it clean. The City of Bridgeport has several components to support the community-wide initiatives to keep our city clean and eliminate blight. One of these initiatives includes the removal of dilapidated buildings around the city to make way for future developments. Along with the City’s War on Blight/Illegal dumping, Bridgeport also promotes the “Adopt a Trash Can program.”

We will be organizing a series of neighborhood clean ups around the city to engage residents and the community for their help. Meet your neighbors and make new friends, all while doing your part for our city. Follow this page for updates as to when the next event is in your neighborhood.

We’re not just cleaning up our streets—we’re also rolling out an education and awareness campaign to help our residents understand the laws and ordinances in our city regarding litter, blight and trash. We’re starting in schools to help our children understand the importance of a clean and green city.
