Community Clean-Ups
Neighborhood Clean-Ups
Neighborhood clean-ups are an integral part of the neighborhood beautification process. These events bring neighbors together with a common purpose: to make a visible impact on their home.
We’ve found that clean-ups brought to us from the community organically are generally more successful and better-attended. So, if your neighborhood or organization wants to help beautify its space, let us know!
Request MDCB Support for a Community Clean-up
MDCB can help interested neighbors by promoting the event, recruiting and coordinating volunteers, and loaning out equipment and supplies for the event. When there isn’t snow on the ground, we are ready to roll!
Get in touch with us on Facebook or email info@beautifulmuncie.org to schedule your group clean-up. For general questions, please visit our Contact page.
Large clean-ups need to be coordinated with the Muncie Sanitary District (MSD) to reserve the use of trash trucks. But smaller clean-ups can happen at any time, using residents’ toters or making pick-up arrangements with the MSD.
Tidy Up Tuesday
The Tuesday before First Thursday – 8:30–10:30 AM & 2–4 PM
Join us for Ivy Tech’s Tidy Up Tuesday event as we clean up downtown in preparation for First Thursday!
Every Tuesday before First Thursday, we’ll be collaborating with Ivy Tech students and staff to keep our downtown area clean and welcoming for all who will visit the downtown area. All are welcome to participate in either of the two allotted clean-up times (8:30–10:30 am; 2–4 pm), and local business owners are encouraged to host similar efforts in their establishments.
If you would like to participate in one or both of the tidy up shifts, please contact Alisa Wells at awells8@ivytech.edu or call 765-289-2291 ext. 1455.
Tidy Up Tuesday is a collaboration with DWNTWN Muncie & Ivy Tech Community College–Muncie.
