Downtown Missoula Garbage and Recycling Removal Street Decor

The Downtown Missoula Partnership (DMP) believes it is imperative to keep Downtown Missoula clean and hygienic year-round, as it directly impacts the overall aesthetic and experience for visitors, locals, and businesses alike.


 

How Does the DMP Support Garbage and Recycling Removal?

Over the past 10 years, the Downtown Missoula Partnership has acquired and installed 85 garbage cans and 15 recycling containers throughout the public right-of-way to help manage waste disposal. The DMP maintenance crew services these receptacles daily.

Where Are Garbage and Recycling Receptacles Placed in Downtown Missoula? 

Garbage and recycling cans are typically located near street corners in easily accessible areas. Recycling containers are placed adjacent to garbage cans for convenience. As Downtown businesses and activities grow, so does the demand for waste management. High-traffic pedestrian areas and locations with food and beverage services often require additional receptacles.

These street cans do not replace dumpsters but instead provide a clean and aesthetically suitable solution for individual waste disposal within the public sidewalk space.

How Can I Support This Initiative?

The Downtown Missoula Partnership is always looking for monetary or in-kind donations to help fund and attain additional garbage and recycling receptacles. You can always support this program by simply utilizing these garbage and recycling receptacles as you make your way through the heart of Missoula and enjoy the downtown district.
