Garbage Blitz Trash Cleanup

A flyer with details for the Garbage blitz, showing text and illustrations of people picking up trash

Let’s clean up downtown together! Join us for the Kalamazoo Garbage Blitz, a community clean-up series dedicated to keeping our streets and public spaces beautiful. This is a great way to care for the environment, connect with neighbors, and make a visible difference in our city. Open to the public and all ages!

We’ll gather at Bee Joyful before heading out in small groups to clean up key downtown spots: Kalamazoo Mall, Bronson Park, and neighboring streets and blocks (coverage will expand based on volunteer turnout!). Gloves, trash bags, and grabbers will be provided, or you’re welcome to bring your own if you have them.

No sign-up needed, just show up at Bee Joyful by 6:00 PM on any of the event dates! See you there!
