A photograph of black trash bags sitting at curb outside a McDonald’s restaurant.

The black bags placed illegally outside the Canal Street McDonald's tonight are a Happy Meal for RATS. We issued Ronald a warning - and he can read the rules at nyc.gov/UseBins before ticketing starts September 1.

Photograph showing before and after cleaning the pedestrian walkway. First photo, marked Before is full of litter and debris. Second, marked After, shows cleaned area.

Some areas around the City were “forgotten” for too long. Those days are over.

Our TNT clean teams are making quick work of the places that get covered by litter and debris – like this enclosed pedestrian walkway in Harlem. 🧨

Hero Alert! 💪

Sanitation Workers Rene Mathe & Matthew Greco were working in Sunset Park and noticed an air conditioning unit in a building window was on fire! They knocked on the door to alert the sleeping residents, who then got out safe & the FDNY arrived to take it from there!
