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
Neighborhoods, community groups and businesses will have an opportunity to adopt a mile or more of public right of way to plan cleanups. Locations will be approved by the city to ensure safety and that volunteer groups will receive safety orientations and appropriate safety and cleanup equipment.
Coming Summer 2024.
Signature Streets
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.
Keep Bellevue Beautiful has hosted seven neighborhood area cleanup events, including Downtown, Factoria, Bridle Trails, Lake Hills, BelRed, Crossroads, Newport, Wilburton, and Eastgate.
Keep an eye out for our next Signature Street event coming this fall!
Youth Volunteers:
Under 14 years old - Must have a parent/guardian accompany them during the cleanup.
Ages 14-17 years old - Must have a parent/guardian sign the liability waiver, but do not need a parent/guardian present at the cleanup.
Abandoned Shopping Carts and Graffiti
You can report abandoned shopping carts and unwelcome graffiti via the MyBellevue app or the MyBellevue portal.
Summer 2023 Cleanups
Thank you to all who came out to help with the two launch cleanup events in Downtown and Factoria! With about 130 volunteers, we were able to meet neighbors and clean the areas that we all enjoy. Please consider coming out for future events and do your part every day by reducing unnecessary use, and plan to reuse and recycle items to Keep Bellevue Beautiful!
