Westwood Town Wide Cleanup- April 2026

Please consider signing up to help clean our town any time during the month of April. Choose from the cleanup options listed below. If you know an area that needs cleanup and is not listed, reach out to us at [email protected] we will add it to the list for you.


  1. Youth groups should consider fields, parks and other low-traffic areas. Adult groups may consider signing up for roadside areas where extreme caution must be exercised.


  1. No matter where you choose, be on the lookout for poison ivy. For info on preventing a rash from poison ivy, check out these tips: https://www.aad.org/public/everyday-care/itchy-skin/poison-ivy/prevent-rash


  1. Pick up gloves and trash bags throughout the month of April at the main office of Hale Education- 80 Carby Street.


NEW! Litter Reacher Tools available

Thanks to the generosity of the DPW, we have 24 handy tools that can be borrowed for your event. They can help reach difficult spots and help eliminate bending down repeatedly. Just email us to sign up to borrow them: [email protected]


After you are finished:

  1. Once your area is cleaned, email us with the location of your tied trash bags for DPW pickup: [email protected]
  2. Feel free to send us photos of your cleanup for posting: [email protected]
    We picked this option for you:

    Due to "party activity", this area might be a good candidate for cleaning by an adult group.
