Some helpful hints for the cleanup - "rules of the road"
- You MUST be a resident of St. Anthony Park, Como Park or the City of Falcon Heights to bring materials to this cleanup. You will be asked for proof of residency if you do not present the entrance voucher form with the mailing label intact.
- You must bring the entrance voucher form with you and have it filled out before you reach the entrance. Make checks payable to Como Community Council.
- The fees will be assessed, tallied and accepted by a person at the entrance gate.
- For the safety of all, please stay on established paths throughout the cleanup area and follow traffic directions.
- Volunteers will be on site to help you unload your vehicles. Do not walk inside any dumpsters or throw anything over the sides of dumpsters, unless the door is closed.
- Separate for recycling as much as you can. General refuse in St. Paul is either landfilled or burned for fuel!
Seniors and disabled persons: For free pick-up on the day of the cleanup, call the NW St. Paul Chore Service Program (651-649-5984).
