Sunland Park Launches Tire Clean-Up Initiative to Beautify City

The City of Sunland Park is taking another step toward a cleaner, safer community with the launch of a dedicated Tire Clean-Up event. Properly disposing of old tires is one of the simplest ways residents can make an immediate difference in Sunland Park by reducing illegal dumping and eliminating potential breeding grounds for pests.

On May 2, 2026, City crews, volunteers, and community partners will be working across our neighborhoods to ensure used tires are disposed of safely.

Event Details

- Date: May 2, 2026

Building on the success of our Clean Up Day program, this targeted initiative addresses a specific need in our community. While general clean-up events focus on bulky household items, this event is dedicated exclusively to tires, which are usually restricted from regular collection due to environmental regulations. By providing a free, local drop-off point, the City is working to keep our alleys, desert lots, and neighborhoods clean and clear of debris.
