Keeping San Juan Clean: Your Garbage and Brush Schedule

Welcome to the heart of San Juan’s cleanliness! We’ve organized our city into four convenient quadrants to ensure efficient garbage and brush pickup:

🌟 Quadrant 1 – Southwest: Garbage Pickup on Tuesdays.

  • This is your day to put out those cans! Make sure they’re on the curb, ready to go.

🌟 Quadrant 2 – Southeast: Garbage pickup on Thursdays.

  • Thursdays are your day for a spotless neighborhood. Get those cans out!

🌟 Quadrant 3 – Northeast: Garbage Pickup on Wednesdays.

  • Your midweek cleanup crew is here. Place your cans by the curb.

🌟 Quadrant 4 – Northwest: Garbage Pickup on Mondays.

  • Start your week fresh and clean. Your cans should be waiting on the curb.

A Friendly Reminder: To ensure timely pickup, please place your garbage cans unobstructed on the curb. If we encounter obstructions or if cans aren’t at the curb, we won’t be able to pick them up. But don’t worry, they can still be collected – at the owner’s expense.

Join us in maintaining the cleanliness and beauty of San Juan. Let’s work together for a cleaner, greener city!” 🏡🗑️🌳
