Let?s keep Nottingham clean ? join in with a Big Spring Clean

Clean campaign

Nine out of ten people in Nottingham say that they believe those living in the city have a responsibility to keep Nottingham clean by picking up after their dogs and disposing of rubbish properly.

Those who drop their litter or make other messes are in the minority ? so we?re asking everyone to help keep Nottingham a lovely place to live.


* Tell us about problems! Let us know about clean issues like dog poo, dumped rubbish, graffiti and more at www.nottinghamcity.gov.uk/reportit? [ /reportit ]- you can choose to create an account to get updates on the issue, or you can report it without creating an account
* Dispose of your rubbish responsibly. Put litter, cigarette ends and chewing gum in the bins provided or take it home with you
* If you own a dog, always pick up and dispose of dog waste in bins - any bin will do!
* Use the council?s bulky waste service [ /information-for-residents/bin-and-rubbish-collections/request-a-collection-of-bulky-items ] to remove any unwanted household items - it's just ?20 for six items. Do not dump rubbish and unwanted household items on the street
* Put your bin out by 7am on the day of collection and take your emptied bin off the street on the same day
* Put the right waste in the right bins ? recycle it right! See what recycling we can and can't accept here [ /recycleitright ]
