Erie's Annual Fall Clean-Up Day Returns: A Call to Community Action!

Get ready to roll up your sleeves, Erie! The much-anticipated Annual Fall Clean-Up Day is set to transform our beloved town on Tuesday, September 9, 2025. This cherished community event is more than just an opportunity to declutter; it's a vibrant celebration of civic pride, environmental stewardship, and the collective spirit that makes Erie such a special place to live.

Organized by the Town of Erie Public Works Department, in collaboration with numerous local volunteers and environmental groups, this year's clean-up promises to be bigger and better than ever.

Residents will have the chance to responsibly dispose of a wide array of items, from bulky household waste and discarded furniture to electronic waste and yard debris. Think of it as spring cleaning, but with the crisp, invigorating air of autumn!

The primary collection hub will be located at Erie Community Park (Parking Lot E, 450 Powers St, Erie, CO 80516), open from 8:00 AM to 1:00 PM.

Participants are encouraged to arrive early, as popular disposal services can experience queues. Friendly volunteers will be on hand to guide you through the various drop-off stations, ensuring a smooth and efficient process for everyone.

What can you bring? Generally, anything from old mattresses and broken appliances to tree branches and garden refuse.

However, for the safety of our community and the environment, certain hazardous materials such as paints, motor oils, chemicals, and tires will not be accepted. A detailed list of accepted and prohibited items, along with specific preparation guidelines, will be available on the Town of Erie's official website closer to the event date.

We also highly recommend separating your items beforehand to expedite your drop-off.

The Annual Fall Clean-Up Day is a testament to Erie's commitment to sustainability and community engagement. By participating, you're not just clearing out your garage; you're actively contributing to the beauty, health, and vibrancy of our shared spaces.

It's a fantastic way to meet neighbors, connect with local initiatives, and instill a sense of pride in maintaining our natural surroundings. Let's work together to make Erie shine!
