This is a big deal.
Every year, the city and residents deal with illegal dumping of mattresses, furniture, debris and electronics. We find piles in our parks and waterways, as well as vacant lots and alleys. It contaminates our green spaces and costs money to clean up.
Help keep our city clean!
The annual Drop-Off Day events help deter illegal dumping in our parks and neighborhoods. Drop-Off Day encourages St. Paul residents to dispose of items correctly and legally.
We need volunteers to assist in the process. Help greet neighbors, unload vehicles, and make decisions about what can be recycled and what needs to go to the trash.
There are two shifts available.
Volunteers help:
- Greet and speak with community members
- Answer questions
- Provide direction on where to unload materials
- Review items to ensure they can be disposed of properly
- Unload vehicles
There are two shifts:
7:15-10:30 am
10:15 am-1:30 pm
The Drop-Off Event is open 8:00 a.m.-1:00 p.m. on Saturday, June 23.
Volunteers receive:
Breakfast and lunch, as well as snacks and beverages will be provided. Please bring a refillable water bottle if you have one!
A voucher to drop off a free load of stuff.
Volunteers can sign up to win a door-prize, one sign-up per shift.
Event happens rain or shine.
>>Youth and students can obtain volunteer hours for this activity!
