Street Sweeping

We keep West Des Moines clean by sweeping over 450 miles of streets and 150 cul-de-sacs. Our crews clear debris from main roads, neighborhoods, City parking lots, and the Valley Junction business district.

Our Schedule

Weather permitting, we sweep from April 1 through December 1. While we aim to stick to the schedule, poor weather or emergencies may cause slight delays.

  • Neighborhoods & Main Roads: Swept once every 5–6 weeks.
  • Valley Junction Business Area: Swept every 2 weeks.
