Fostoria Community Cleanup Day

United for Cleaner Neighborhoods

When? July 12th, 3pm – 5pm
Where? Volunteers meet at Higher Ground Church for instructions – 456 Columbus Ave in Fostoria

We invite you to join forces with the United Way of Fostoria, Kiwanis Club of Fostoria, and Fostoria Area Habitat for Humanity to make our neighborhoods cleaner and safer. All community members are welcome, and there’s no need to pre-register – just show up ready to make a difference!

Guidelines for the Cleanup Day

While we appreciate all contributions to the cleanup, there are certain materials that we cannot accept due to safety and disposal regulations.

These include:

Hazardous materials (batteries, chemicals, paint, oil, medical waste)
Electronics
Car parts
Construction materials
Yard waste
Upholstered furniture

We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in ensuring the safe disposal of these items.

What We Provide

We’ll equip you with cleanup supplies, thanks to the generosity of the OSS Solid Waste District and a grant from ServeOhio, but we also encourage volunteers to bring their own supplies or equipment.

Dumpster Locations for Fostoria Residents

Habitat for Humanity has coordinated dumpsters at two convenient locations:

Higher Ground Church
Bethel Baptist Church

Please note that dumpsters are available only to Fostoria residents and proof of residency (valid ID) will be required.
