Published Sep 20, 2018

Escambia County collected and disposed of approximately 29 tons (57,960 pounds) of debris during the Sept. 19 Brownsville Northwest Neighborhood Cleanup, as part of the county's ongoing effort to help keep local neighborhoods and communities clean and safe. The event allowed residents to leave items at the curb to be disposed of free of charge by the county and partnering agencies.

The Brownsville Northwest Neighborhood Cleanup saw great participation from residents, with about 22,480 pounds of yard waste, 29,240 pounds of bulk waste, 5,400 pounds of tires and 840 pounds of household hazardous waste placed at curbside for pickup.

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. Since 2016, more than 1,722 tons (3,444,880 pounds) of debris were collected and disposed of through the Community Redevelopment Agency's Safe Neighborhood Program.

The county's neighborhood cleanup program is hosted by the Escambia County Community Redevelopment Agency's Safe Neighborhood Program. Local partners include Escambia County Waste Services, Environmental Code Enforcement, Public Works, Animal Services and Road Prison, along with Keep Pensacola Beautiful and the City of Pensacola Sanitation Department.
