2026 Spring Clean-up
Michigan City’s 2026 Spring Clean-Up begins Monday, March 23. Residents must place approved items out by the Sunday before their scheduled pickup week. Items set out after that deadline may not be collected.
To simplify the program, the City has eliminated spring clean-up zones and will now follow the normal pickup schedule.
As part of this community clean-up effort, Michigan City is also offering the Waste Not, Want Not program to help residents safely dispose of unwanted household items.
The City will also host a drop-off event on Wednesday, April 1, and Saturday, April 4 at the Michigan City Municipal Airport at Phillips Field, 1300 North Highway 212 for approved household items.
Please see the information below for pickup dates, accepted items, and program details.
