Community Cleanup events save residents a trip to the landfill for items that do not fit in their waste and recycling carts or for residents who do not have access to cart service. This service is free of charge to all Calgarians. Residents simply bring any of the accepted items to the Queensland Diamond Cove Community Hall on June 29 between 9:00 am and 1:30 pm where a group of volunteers will direct and assist them in recycling/discarding those materials.
