More About Neighborhood Cleanups
The City of Springfield contracts with Community Partnership of the Ozarks to coordinate free cleanups in registered neighborhoods. Neighborhood residents can dispose of yard waste, old furniture, construction debris and much more free of charge. We will have on site computer and tv recycling at all our Spring 2024 cleanups. Items that cannot be accepted at cleanups include tires, hazardous waste (paint, oil, varnish, or fluorescent bulbs), or any other item that poses a threat to the public.
In 2023, neighborhood cleanups served 1,570 households that cumulatively discarded 222 tons of bulk waste (furniture, mattresses, trash, and other large items), 37 tons of brush, and 17 tons of scrap metal.
