New Trash Cans Coming to North Portland! Where Should They Go?

The City of Portland wants your feedback on where the new trash cans should be installed. Click here to learn more and fill out the survey.

This is very welcome news in our neighborhood. Not only will there be more trash cans, but the pick up schedule will increase to two times per week.

The cans have a side attachment for deposit beverage bottles, which can be easily collected by community members. The art on the outside of the cans will be designed by local artists, chosen in partnership with local arts groups.

The trash cans will be emptied twice a week by a women or minority-owned trash hauler (currently being selected).
