Street Cleaning Information

Street cleaning is done in Allentown on a year-round basis in most parts of the city. If you are unsure about a specific area, check the signs on that block.

Street cleaning is done in many weather conditions. In fact, when it is raining, the street cleaner uses rainwater to pick up debris rather than using city water. During the winter, street cleaning routes are followed to help remove snow and related buildup. For daily updates on street cleaning operations, you can call the City’s Street Cleaning Hotline at (610) 437-7636.
