Community cleanups
If your community group wants to improve the appearance of your local area and tackle environmental crimes, such as fly-tipping, littering and graffiti, contact our Community Awareness Team to organise a cleanup.
We can provide you with brushes, shovels, litter picks, gloves and bags free of charge. We'll deliver these to you in advance and collect them again, along with the rubbish, once the cleanup is complete. You'll need to give us at least one week's notice to give us time to organise the equipment.
Please note, it's your responsibility to look after the equipment and ensure that all items are returned at the end of the cleanup. You'll also have to sign a receipt when you receive the items.
When arranging a cleanup, please tell us how many adults and children will be taking part so that we can provide you with the correct size of gloves and litter picks.
We can also help you carry out risk assessments. And if you're holding a large-scale cleanup we can help you organise promotional leaflets (please note that leaflets are only offered when there are large numbers of volunteers involved).
To book a cleanup, email catcleansing@belfastcity.gov.uk or call 028 9032 0202 (extension 5383).
