Sandbag cleanup operations for Sunnyside and Grandview Homes starting in late May

FLAGSTAFF — The City of Flagstaff will launch a one-time sandbag clean up operation throughout the Sunnyside and Grandview Homes neighborhoods, in the areas shown on the map. Residents of Sunnyside and Grandview Homes are instructed to move their sandbags debris to the curb (within City Right-of-Way) in front of their property. City of Flagstaff crews will remove this sandbag debris between May 26 and June 8.

Residents who want to remove their sandbag debris early can bring them to the City’s Cinder Lake Landfill (6770 E Landfill Rd). The City will waive the landfill fee for all sandbag debris. A copy of the resident’s municipal water bill is required for address verification.

The City will only collect sandbag debris (sandbags and cinders) during these clean up operations. Residents who wish to discard other waste should utilize the City’s Bulk Pick-Up program.

The entire suite of Spruce Wash Flood Mitigation Projects will be substantially complete in the summer and will alleviate the immediate postfire flood threat from the Museum Fire (2019). Please note that flood risk in the area will always remain. For more information about this sandbag clean up operation, please visit the Project Webpage
