CleanUpNOLA

CleanUpNOLA is a comprehensive, coordinated initiative combining the efforts of multiple City departments and the community to make New Orleans shine.

We encourage all residents, visitors, and businesses to join us in this effort. Our success depends on everyone working together, not just within City Hall, but throughout the community. Together we will CleanUpNOLA.
