The neighborhood cleanup initiative involves an aggressive clean-up effort targeting different neighborhoods throughout the county, with crew members and volunteers picking up a variety of debris and waste, including electronics, furniture and household items. In the past two years, more than 925 tons (1,858,980 pounds) of debris were collected and disposed of through the Community Redevelopment Agency and Safe Neighborhood Program.
The county's neighborhood cleanup program is hosted by the Community Redevelopment Agency, Escambia County Safe Neighborhoods Program and Escambia County Waste Services. Local partners include Escambia County Environmental Code Enforcement, the Escambia County Road Prison, the City of Pensacola Sanitation Department and Keep Pensacola Beautiful.
