To support our residents in their areas where they live we are organising community clean ups targeting hotspots across the Bury borough.
Across the summer volunteers and councillors from Bury Council are teaming-up with local volunteers, community groups and residents, experiencing our local values - building trust, working together, and putting communities first.
We’re so grateful for the hard work of all volunteer litter pickers around the borough that complement the year-round work of our Street Cleansing Service.
Working together with our volunteers we can make a bigger impact.

Bulky waste collection
If you have large unwanted household items, you can arrange a bulky waste collection, or if your items are in good condition, you could donate them to a charity or community scheme.
More information about bulky waste and donations to charity.
Fly-tipping
Fly-tipping is a crime. It can be rubbish from a household or a business.
If you discover dumped rubbish, do not touch or handle it, as it may contain hazardous materials and could also contain evidence that we can use.
Looking back at our first clean-up day
More than 40 bags of litter and rubbish were taken off the streets of Bury during the first of our LET’s Community Clean ups around the Mosses Centre, East and Edward Streets.
