Street Cleaning

CHICAGO UTILIZES MECHANICAL STREET SWEEPERS TO REMOVE DEBRIS AND LITTER FROM STREETS.

From April 1st through mid-November, bright orange temporary parking restrictions are posted the day before sweeping service is scheduled to begin on any street to ensure curb-to-curb cleaning.  Some arterial streets have permanently posted signs that specify a once-per-week period when parking is prohibited for street sweeping.

Our office has created a handy online map that allows you to determine which zone you live in, and the corresponding street cleaning days.
