Street Sweeping#

Street sweeping helps prevent clogged storm drains, winter flooding and ice buildup. That means safer streets and less damage to the road.

What You Need to Know on Sweeping Days#

Sweeping

Clean streets are important for storm water drainage and keeping Fort Collins looking great.

No Parking signs will be placed on streets in advance.

To help sweepers do a thorough job from curb to curb:

  • Move your car and any other items off the street by 7 a.m.
  • Trim any branches or bushes that block access to the curb [City Code 27-57]
  • Don’t rake or blow leaves, branches, rocks or gravel into the street — it’s against city code [City Code 26-498] 

If weather delays sweeping, crews will return when conditions improve.
