Guelph’s annual spring clean up
Each year over 1,800 volunteers including families, friends, community organizations, businesses, and school groups participate in a spring community clean up helping to make our parks and neighbourhoods more beautiful, and protecting our rivers, streams, drinking water and local wildlife.
Registration
Thanks for your interest in our spring 2025 Clean and Green community clean up! Registration is now closed for the season. Thanks to everyone who helped us to keep our city clean this spring. We had a record number of participants in 2025 – over 1,800 people! Registration for next year’s campaign will be posted in March 2026.
Organize your own local parks clean up
Did you know that you can do your own parks clean up any time of year outside of our spring campaign and get free clean up supplies? Supplies may include garbage bags and gloves (cloth and nitrile). We encourage groups to bring their own reusable bags to collect their supplies.
Supplies are available for pick-up from the front desk in any of the following City facilities year round:
- West End Community Centre
- Victoria Road Recreation Centre
- Evergreen Seniors Community Centre
- Guelph Sports Dome
- Service Guelph (City Hall)
Safety tips
Please check out our safety tips and instructions before your group starts to collect litter. Once you have completed your clean-up, don’t forget to report that your garbage is ready for collection using the Report a problem map.
