Fall Town Clean Up Planned For Saturday

TEWKSBURY, MA — Tewksbury's annual Fall Town Clean Up will take place Saturday, the town said Tuesday.

The event will be from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday.

Residents can pickup bags at town hall that morning, then collect trash and take it to the Public Works Department.

There will also be a tire collection hosted by Massachusetts Mosquito Control and a clothing and accessory collection hosted by the Epilepsy Foundation.

The tires must be off rims and the clothing must be clean, in reusable condition and bagged.

Food pantry donations will also be accepted.

All collections will happen at the Department of Public Works, 999 Whipple Road.

"This is a great event and students who need community service hours are encouraged to participate," the town said. "Teams, scouts, youth and civic groups are all welcomed!"

Residents can sign up online here. Email clean.up.tewksbury@gmail.com with any questions.
