Point Arena Community Clean Up Day
Let’s work together to make Point Arena shine!
The City of Point Arena is hosting Clean Up Days on Saturday and Sunday, June 7–8, from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. at the Mendocino County Yard.
This is your chance to dispose of unwanted household junk, furniture, and clutter — free of charge!
THIS PROGRAM IS FOR CITY OF POINT ARENA RESIDENTS ONLY
PROOF OF LIVING IN THE CITY LIMITS IS REQUIRED
such as the mailed voucher you receive from Redwood Waste Solutions/City of Point Arena or a utility bill
🗑 What You Can Bring:
Bulky household trash and
Broken furniture or appliances and
Yard debris (non-commercial, must be separated) and
E-waste (TVs, monitors, computers — separated)
📦 How Much Can I Bring?
We’re encouraging each participating household to bring up to 2 cubic yards of waste — about the size of two washing machines or 10–12 large trash bags.
If you have more than that, please contact City Hall in advance so we can plan accordingly.
💬 Not Everyone Needs It — But Some Really Do!
We know not every household will participate — and that’s okay!
If your property needs a bigger cleanup, we want to help.
Let us know if you need help hauling or if you have neighbors who might.
🚫 Please Note:
- No hazardous materials, paint, chemicals, or commercial loads.
- No public restrooms at the County Yard.
- All volunteers and participants enter at their own risk.
Together, let’s make Point Arena cleaner, safer, and more beautiful for all.

Volunteer Opportunities for Point Arena Clean Up Day
Join us in making Point Arena shine! We’re looking for dedicated volunteers to support our city-wide clean-up effort.
Whether you have an hour or a day to give, there’s a role for everyone.
📍 Where: County Yard, 43401 Eureka Hill Rd (dumping site)
🕘 When: June 7 & 8, 9:00 AM–3:00 PM (dumping site hours)
Volunteers are needed both prior to and on the Clean-Up Day!
Volunteer shifts run from 2 hours to as long as you would like to participate.
Here’s how you can help:
Yard Assistance Team
Help community members — including older adults and people with disabilities — tidy up their yards and homes. Tasks may include light raking, debris collection, and moving materials to the curb or a vehicle. Volunteers should be able to perform light physical work and bring a friendly, helpful attitude.
Hauling Crew
Got a truck and/or trailer? We need you AND your wheels! Assist with transporting bagged trash, green waste, and bulky items from homes or collection points to the main disposal site. Must have a valid driver’s license and be comfortable securing and hauling loads safely.
Traffic and Voucher Check-In Team
Welcome participants, collect vouchers, and help direct traffic at the drop-off site. Volunteers will assist with signage, greeting and guiding drivers, and ensuring pedestrian safety. This is a great role for organized, friendly individuals who enjoy working outdoors and can remain calm under pressure.
Loading Assistance Crew
Strong arms needed! Help lift and place heavier trash items into dumpsters and bins at the main disposal site. Volunteers should be able to lift up to 50 pounds safely, bring their own protective gear (gloves, glasses), and work well as part of a team.
Refreshment Station Volunteers
Support our hard-working volunteers by keeping them fueled and hydrated! Help set up, serve snacks and water, and check on teams at work sites. A perfect role for those who like to nurture and encourage others.
Calling All Musicians! 🎶
We invite local musicians to volunteer their talents at the County Yard during Clean Up Day. Live music will help lift spirits, create a festive atmosphere, and keep the energy high as we work together.
If you love to play and want to be part of this special community event, we would love to hear from you!
All volunteers will receive snacks and lots of appreciation!
Check with your school for service hour eligibility.
All volunteers are required to sign a waiver with the City of Point Arena.
We thank you in advance for your service and for helping to make our community shine!
