Do you have a group of people working together to clean up our streets of trash? If so, the City of Vallejo has a Community Clean Up Trailer ready to support your team.
The City of Vallejo is sponsoring a new program to support our wonderful volunteer groups clean up the neighborhoods and roadways in town.
- For groups of 20 or more volunteers our Public Works team will drop off & pick up the trailer.
- The trailer will be stocked with trash bags, gloves, pickers and other assorted tools to support the clean-up.
- Once the event is done, the trash bags will be picked up and disposed of by city staff at a pre-determined location near the clean-up area.
To RESERVE the Community Clean Up Trailer on a first come first served basis: https://cityofvallejo.formstack.com/forms/comunity_clean_up_trailer_reservation_request

Mission Statement
Vallejo is a family-friendly, multicultural community of friends and neighbours. We are a warm, vibrant and dynamic City, with a diversity of culture, attractions, events and experiences to suit all ages and interests. Residents know that our city is a great place to live, work and play.
Description
Vallejo grew into an important shipping and naval center. Legend has it that Mare Island got its name after Gen. Vallejo drove a herd of horses across the Carquinez Strait.
Vallejo served as home to several Native American tribes including the Coastal Miwoks, the Suisunes and other Patwin tribes. There are three confirmed Native American sites located on Sulphur Springs Mountain above Blue Rock Springs Park.
Established in 1854, Mare Island Naval Shipyard was the West Coast's first shipyard. Closed in 1996, Mare Island now stands poised to become an industrial, commercial and residential centerpiece for the city into the next millennium.
Waterfront and Mare Island redevelopment has become a community effort, with input from residents helping shape the future of what could become the most important economic generator of the city.
The city's Ferry Terminal and ferry service have served as a model for the rest of the Bay Area, helping make Vallejo a transportation and commuter hub for the North Bay. Six Flags Marine World, restaurants and the Downtown Farmer's Market help make Vallejo the vibrant community it is today.
