The scheduled overnight street cleaning in the Downtown will now take place with new times between the hours of 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. The program started in May and continues to September 23. Vehicles must be removed from streets scheduled for cleaning.

Unlike snow removal, the downtown street cleaning schedule is pre-determined for the entire season. It is the driver’s responsibility to look up when the street is scheduled for cleaning and to move their vehicle(s) accordingly; the City of St. John’s does not post signs for street cleaning.

Find out when your street will be cleaned by any of the following ways:

  • View map.stjohns.ca/StreetClean - Find out what streets are scheduled for cleaning each night. All streets are listed and shown on a map. The colours indicate if it’s both sides of your street or just one (odd or even house numbers).

  • Not online? Call Access St. John’s at 311 or 709-754-CITY (2489) to get your street cleaning dates or request a paper copy. 

On the scheduled street cleaning dates, vehicles must be removed from the affected streets by 10 p.m. and cannot be returned until 6 a.m. the following morning, regardless of whether street cleaning has taken place. Failure to remove the vehicle may result in a ticket being issued.
