The City of Idaho Falls will once again help residents with spring cleanup efforts during the annual Clean & Green Citywide Cleanup, beginning May 5, 2022.

Sanitation Division personnel will be available every weekend in May at different locations in Idaho Falls to help collect and dispose of unwanted items. This service provides residents with the option to bring most of their unwanted items to one location where those items will then be sorted accordingly by the Sanitation Division. 

The Sanitation Division accepts household solid waste, brush, and construction waste, along with bulk items. Certain types of waste, such as demolition material, metal, tires, or large appliances are required to be disposed of differently and cannot be accepted by the Sanitation Division. See information below for more information.
