Public Works' Street Division sweeps all City streets each week, excluding private streets and streets without a curb and gutter. Your area is swept on the same day each week, usually the day after trash pickup. For more details, you may view a Map of Street Sweeping.

Please note that certain circumstances may prevent us from sweeping your street thoroughly. On holidays and days of heavy rain, for example, we are unable to sweep the streets. In addition, sweeper operators must avoid large piles of debris because such piles may hide heavy objects that can damage the sweeper. Occasionally, we may also become delayed when a street sweeper needs repairs. Street sweepers are complex machines, subjected to very harsh working conditions (dust, debris, etc.), and they sometimes break down. In these instances, we will make every effort to get a replacement sweeper on the road to complete your route. If you suspect your street was missed, please contact us at (714) 738-6897.

You can help keep our City's streets clean by not dumping grass clippings or heavy objects in the gutter and by not parking vehicles in the street on sweeping days.

 Street Sweeping Signs

The City is required to have regular street sweeping as part of its stormwater program. When cars are parked in the street sweeper path, the cleaning is much less effective. To notify Fullerton residents and businesses when street sweeping occurs in their area, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2019-50 authorizing the Public Works Department to post street sweeping signs city-wide. The signs indicate the street sweeping schedule and are often posted at the entrances of neighborhoods. For street sweeping sign inquires, please contact (714) 738-6897.

Citations

The Fullerton Police Department Traffic Bureau is responsible for the management of all traffic and parking-related matters throughout the City of Fullerton. Citations are issued where signs are posted indicating "No Parking for Street Sweeping". For parking enforcement inquires, please contact (714) 738-6810 or streetsweeping@fullertonpd.org

How Do I Contest A Citation?

If you feel that you should not have been issued a parking citation, or if you believe there are mitigating factors, you may contest the citation by following the procedures on the back of the citation. 

What If I Lost My Citation? 

If you have lost your parking citation, please call (800) 376-2794. Please have your vehicle license plate number available. You will need your license plate number in order for anyone to assist you.
