The City of Castle Pines is partnering with residents for the city’s annual Spring Cleanup Day.

As the community grows, it’s more important than ever to keep the beautiful parks and open space that make Castle Pines special free of trash and other debris. This year’s cleanup day will take place on Saturday, April 6, from 10:30 a.m. to noon, weather permitting.

Volunteers will be able to choose from one of four sites throughout the city (Elk Ridge Park, Coyote Ridge Park, Retreat Park, Daniels Gate Park, or The Green (The Canyons)). Gloves and trash bags will be available at each location.

After picking up your materials, you are free to pick up trash, weeds, and other debris at any park location or any other public area that you know may need a little beautification. When done, you can drop off your materials in a dumpster in the shopping center parking lot at Castle Pines Parkway and Lagae Road. The dumpster will be located near Ziggi's coffee shop. See the map below for the drop-off location.

"Slash" is debris, from nature, such as tree limbs, prunings, and pine needles. If not removed, slash can increase potential fire hazards on your property. Removing slash, and creating defensible space around your home, is the first line of defense against wildfires. To help you mitigate wildfire danger on your property, the City of Castle Pines is hosting a free slash collection event. Bring any tree limbs, prunings, pine needles, or other yard debris to Elk Ridge Park for free disposal on Saturday, May 11, from 9 a.m. - 2 p.m. as a part of the City's slash collection event.

If not removed, slash can add to potential fire hazards on your property. Mitigating and preparing your property for wildfire is important. All vegetation is allowed. Please limit the diameter of trunks or limbs to less than 16 inches. No lumber is allowed, and please ensure there is no metal (nails, screws, etc.) or rocks in the materials you drop off.
