Join Your Neighbors and Improve Your Community
The Neighborhood Cleanup Program has been developed to help community members like you beautify their streets and local neighborhoods.
Together with other volunteers, you can help your neighborhood shine by picking up litter from sidewalks and curbs or removing trash or yard waste from your property.
With an easy application process and all needed supplies provided by The City of El Cajon and courtesy of EDCO Disposal - all that is needed is the help of volunteers like you!
The City’s Parks Division oversees the planting and maintenance of trees in City parks, public grounds, median islands, and in parkways (the area between the curb and sidewalk) along City streets. Current tree maintenance inventory includes over 7,000 various trees. The National Arbor Day Foundation has recognized the City of El Cajon as Tree City USA. We urge all residents to support efforts to protect our trees and support the City’s Urban Forestry Program. The City of El Cajon Parks Division will oversee the planting and maintenance of parkway trees (free of charge) for property owners, providing the parkway can accommodate trees and the property owners sign a Parkway Tree Planting Agreement.

Park Maintenance
The Parks Division maintains, improves, protects, and develops the City's parks, landscaped median islands, public building grounds, and the urban forest for the benefit and enjoyment of the community.
We believe that attractive public open spaces and well-maintained parks help make El Cajon a better place to live and encourages civic pride.
Our staff continually strives to provide the community the highest quality and level of service possible.
