Make Southend Sparkle! Councils new clean campaign

Make Southend Sparkle

Southend are taking a stand against the cluttered streets of Southend-on-Sea and Westcliff with their new campaign ‘Make Southend Sparkle.’

The campaign aims to educate residents and reduce litter outside homes and on the streets, and  £30,000 has already been pledged to the cause by council chiefs.

The campaign will focus on the worst affected areas such as York road and some areas of Westcliff. The council will be looking to hire volunteers to assist the campaign to ‘Make Southend Sparkle’ by targeting fly tipping and littering, cleaning up the streets and advising residents on how to correctly dispose of their waste.

Councillors are urging residents to have more pride in their neighbourhoods by checking bin bag collection dates and which bags to put out, to prevent bags being left outside homes for days or weeks, making streets look unsightly and attracting foxes which could rip bags open.

Southend-on-Sea also have an ongoing issue with fly-tippers, with dumped waste costing the council thousands every year to clear up.   We often see fly tipped waste on the streets of Southend, including furniture, fridges and a variety of other waste types.

You can do your part to Make Southend Sparkle! If you are looking to hire a skip to clear up your own cluttered front garden, or just need one for a house clearance or renovation, let FindaSkip know! We can offer competitive skip hire prices, fast delivery and an excellent service. Skip hire in Southend can be quick and hassle free!

We regularly work with Southend Borough Council, organising road permits for our customers so skips can be left on the road, and working with them to make Southend-on-Sea a tidier and more pleasant place to live.
