Vail begins street sweeping, cinder pick up
Street sweeping operations began in Vail May 5 and will continue until Nov. 1, weather permitting. Crews will be working five days a week to complete the sweeping, which includes curbside cinder pick up. Residents are asked to rake the cinders from their yards into the right-of-way and to call the public works department at 970-479-2158 when ready for pick up, then allow a few days for completion.
The cinder pick-up schedule is as follows:
- Monday — Vail Village from the Vail Golf Course to West Forest Road
- Tuesday —North side of I-70
- Wednesday — South side of I-70
- Thursday — East Vail from the Vail Golf Course to end of East Vail
- Friday — Vail Village from the Vail Golf Course to West Forest Road
The town is also encouraging residents to get outside and help clean up their neighborhoods this spring. Residents can dispose of collected trash and large items in dumpsters provided by the town from May 5 through May 16 or until they are full, whichever comes first. Please do not dispose of electronics, household hazardous waste such as paint or chemicals, or commercial landscaping materials in the dumpsters. The dumpsters will be located at the North Trail trailhead parking lot in West Vail at the west end of the North Frontage Road, the Ford Park parking lot and the East Vail interchange parking area at I-70 exit 180.
