In my neighborhood: My recycle is picked up every two weeks, street sweep is every two weeks on Wednesdays.

But I would like for the speed humps to get fixed.

My block has a sign that says street sweeping is on...Tuesdays, I think?

In nine years I've never seen a street sweeper truck.

If your block is anything like ours, you'll see the parking enforcement tickets going on windshields whether or not you see the street sweepers.

My block is nothing like yours, then, fortunately.

yeah good for you all then. Unfortunately my neighbors get the tickets but not the benefits of the sweepers.

How do you find out what streets get sweeped, ours in canton definitely needs it stepping in like 6 inches of mud getting out of my car everyday

What neighborhood is this? From my experience the difference between neighborhoods is getting bigger.

Serious mud issues at street corners in Fells Point. The sweeping ain't happening here.

It’s surreal to read complaints about mud in other neighborhoods, we have whole trees that fell in the road last year and still haven’t been removed.

We don't have tax dollar street cleaning in Fells. The businesses pay the Waterfront Partnership to get the main streets, which they do in these smaller golf cart sized vacuum equipped vehicles. However, I've seen neighbors ask for and receive assistance from those guys for residential spaces. They are pretty great. Personally, I clean my own street gutters a few times a year.
