A Better Plan

Starting March 31st – Street Cleaning will now take place on the same day as Recycling Service. To make sure that this happens safely and efficiently, there will be a PARKING BAN/ticketing during this time from 7AM-3PM.

Benefits of Combined Street Cleaning & Recycling Days (#CCGCPawtucket)
  • Streamlined and reliable recycling pickup for you! 
  • A simpler and more predictable parking ban. 
  • Better protection of storm drains for a cleaner environment. 
  • Clears up issues with automatic recycling pick-up and cars being in the way.
  • Improved sweeping to keep roads clean and beautiful.

This change will improve our recycling and street sweeping services, making our city cleaner and greener. Aligning the schedules will give the City easier access to clean our streets, streamline recycling bin pick-up, and make it easier for residents to identify when a parking ban is in place.
Mayor Donald R. Grebien

Other Cleaner, Green Initiatives

The City is also working to improve the environment by offering free tree plantings and rain collection barrels for residents, and recycling collection for local businesses. Businesses that participate in the recycling program will be eligible to receive a recycling cart, free of charge. For more information and to apply for a tree, rain barrel, or recycling bin please see the following:

Cleaner, Greener Pawtucket

Installing rain barrels is an easy way for property owners to harvest stormwater runoff on their property, which reduces the stress on the city’s drainage system. The water retained in the barrel can be used to water grass or flowers, and in doing so, the homeowner lessens their impact on the environment and saves money on their water bill. 

To receive a free rain barrel for your property, please fill out the online application.

Thank you for making Pawtucket greener! Mayor Donald R. Grebien
