Street Sweeping
The Public Works Department’s Streets Maintenance Division manages the contract for weekly sweeping of the Downtown Pleasanton Business District streets, City parking lots and all other streets. Streets are swept once a month on a fixed schedule based on the day of the month (i.e. first Monday, second Thursday), not on a specific recurring date. Residents are encouraged to move their vehicles on street sweeping days to allow the contractor to sweep all areas.
For more information, please contact us at (925) 931-5500 or contact us.

Fall Storm Drain Maintenance: Ensuring Pleasanton’s Streets and Homes Stay Safe from Flooding
Pleasanton conducts storm drain maintenance efforts to help prevent clogged storm drains and reduce flooding risks. From November to February, residents may see leaf pick-ups taking place prior to street sweeping days. This schedule helps to remove the bulk of the leaves on roadways and in gutters as street sweepers can only handle small debris. During the fall and winter months, fallen leaves and debris can clog storm drains, leading to flooding on streets and sidewalks. This can damage the City’s infrastructure, homes, and properties. Blocked storm drains can also cause serious flooding, disrupt neighborhoods, and lead to costly repairs. By properly managing leaves and debris, we can help maintain clean streets, prevent flooding, and protect our community.
How You Can Help
Proper Disposal
Pleasanton’s storm drain maintenance efforts are only for trees on City property and does not include the removal of front or backyard debris. Residents should dispose of leaves from residential trees responsibly by placing them in green waste containers or using them for composting. If you need additional green carts, contact Pleasanton Garbage Services at (925) 846-2042.
Prevent Blockages
Avoid sweeping leaves into gutters or streets.
Landscape Responsibility
Communicate with your landscape professionals to ensure they follow proper disposal practices.
Let’s work together to keep Pleasanton beautiful and safe as we prepare for the upcoming rainy season.
