Residents, visitors and businesses praise Bellevue for being a safe, clean and vibrant city. Together, we all can help to keep Bellevue beautiful as a place for everyone to enjoy! Keep Bellevue Beautiful will continue to roll out different ways for you to learn and help.

Adopt-A-Street
Adopt-A-Street is a volunteer-based program that encourages and resources individuals, families, neighbors, businesses and community groups to take an active role in keeping our streets free of litter.
Adopters can choose a street and commit to cleaning it at least four times a year. The city provides safety vests, gloves, trash bags and litter grabbers to help volunteers be well-prepared and safe while cleaning up.

Signature Streets
Keep Bellevue Beautiful is hosting two upcoming Signature Streets litter cleanup events! We encourage you to participate with friends and family to make a great impact. These cleanup events are also a great opportunity for youth to earn community service hours. Please consider coming out for future events and do your part every day by reducing unnecessary use, and plan to reduce, reuse and recycle items to keep Bellevue beautiful!
Saturday, Sept. 13, 2025 9-10:15 a.m.
Registration coming soon!
Signature streets provide first and lasting impressions of Bellevue and are also the streets that have frequently been hot spots for reported litter. The cleanups have been a great way for community members to connect, have fun and contribute to keeping Bellevue's streets and streams clean.
Within its first year, Keep Bellevue Beautiful has hosted nine neighborhood area community cleanup events, including Downtown, Factoria, Bridle Trails, Lake Hills, BelRed, Crossroads, Newport, Wilburton and Eastgate.
Thank you to everyone who has participated in our past Signature Streets cleanup events.
