Block Drops

Block Drops are mobile cleanup stations deployed around West Seattle and designed for ease of community engagement. Stations consist of signage, pickup sticks, buckets and bags (usually 5-10 sets of gear depending on site location).

We drop stations off for a set period of time (usually 9am to 5pm), then pick them up at the end of the day and take care of the collected trash with help from our partners at Seattle Public Utilities / Adopt a Street program.

Just show up, use the tools provided and we’ll take care of the rest.
