STREET SWEEPING SERVICES
The City of Huntington Beach established the Street Sweeping program in response to Federal and State Clean Water regulations. These regulations control pollution and reduce urban runoff flow entering our waterways and ocean. Street sweeping removes debris from the streets and gutters before entering the storm drain system. Every week, our city street sweepers collect nearly 70 tons of rubbish from over 1,121+ miles of roads and gutters.
Parking enforcement motivates residents to move their vehicles, allowing for more efficient sweeping and more thorough debris removal. The street sweeper will sweep all public arterial and residential streets twice per month.
STREET SWEEPING HOLIDAY INFORMATION
The City's street sweeping contractor observes only the holidays listed below. During some of these holidays, the sweeper stays on their regular schedule and sweeps all public arterial and residential streets. No citations will be issued during the listed holidays. However, residents are encouraged to move their cars so the street sweeper can do its job.
