The City of Milpitas, together with Milpitas Sanitation, will continue holding Neighborhood Clean-Up Events to provide debris bins for residents who would like to dispose of large/bulky items. The events will be open to all Milpitas residents free of charge, with prior registration.
The Neighborhood Clean-Up Events are back for 2023!
Registration is now open for the second Neighborhood Clean-Up on Saturday, June 10th. You can dispose of unwanted items for free upon proof of residency, ID, and sign-up reservation.
