Town Clean-Up & Annual Hard-to-Recycle Event
May 15 – May 23 all-day

Annual Hard-to-Recycle Event: Postponed

The Hard-to-Recycle event will not be held this spring, but residents are invited to bring household hazardous waste like paint and household cleaners, as well as electronic waste, to the Summit County Resource Allocation Park Monday – Friday 7am -3:30pm and Saturday 7am-noon. Learn more about HHW recycling or call us at (970) 668-5703.


Town Clean Up Week: May 15-23

The Towns of Blue River, Breckenridge, Dillon, Frisco, and Silverthorne are calling for volunteers to help clean up Summit County before summer. As the snow melts, those windblown and forgotten items from our busy winter season become noticeable, making spring cleaning a necessity. This year’s cleanup will take place May 15-23 to allow for time and space for physical distancing.

Cleanup supplies can be picked up from designated areas in each Town, or personal supplies can be used if preferred. Volunteers are encouraged to pick a favorite area near their home that needs attention rather than receiving an assigned area. Filled trash bags (50lbs or less) should be placed visibly near the side of the road.

Instagram Contest: Community members can post a photo of their Town Clean Up experience on Instagram by May 23 for a chance to win gift cards from local businesses. One photo entry per person. Winners will be notified by each Town after the contest has closed.

Please reach out to your specific town with any questions or concerns.
