Let’s clean up, Weyburn! We’re calling on residents, local businesses, clubs and organizations to roll up their sleeves and take part in Wey-Clean Week 2026, happening May 25-29.
This year’s focus is on encouraging residents to care for the areas around their properties, including sidewalks, front streets, back alleys, and nearby shared spaces. Keeping these areas clear helps improve the look of neighbourhoods, but it also supports important day-to-day operations.
TAKE CARE OF THE PLACES WE SHARE
This year’s campaign is “Take care of the places we share.” Whether it’s a school yard, storefront, parking lot, or alley, every effort helps get our community ready for the season ahead. Consider organizing a team to help clean:
- Front entrances and sidewalks
- Parking lots and surrounding areas
- Back alleys and loading zones
- School grounds and shared spaces
To support cleanup efforts, the City of Weyburn will also offer curbside pickup of bagged yard waste only from June 1 to 5. Collection will take place on each residential area’s regular garbage pickup day:
- Monday, June 1 – Area 3
- Tuesday, June 2 – Area 4
- Wednesday, June 3 – Area 5
- Thursday, June 4 – Area 1
- Friday, June 5 – Area 2
This service is intended to support front yard and back alley maintenance by helping residents dispose of bagged grass clippings, leaves, weeds, and small garden debris only. It does not include branches, loose material, household garbage, furniture, construction waste or other debris. All yard waste must be bagged to be collected.
SUPPLIES
Free gloves and garbage bags are available to support your clean-up efforts. Pick-up is available at City Hall, or we can arrange delivery. To get involved, contact the Engineering Department at:

GOLDEN GARBAGE CAN
Wey-Clean Week is also an opportunity to build momentum ahead of the Golden Garbage Can competition on June 17, a friendly community clean-up challenge between the City of Weyburn and the City of Estevan. More details on this year’s competition will be shared soon, but every effort made during Wey-Clean helps set the tone for community pride and participation across Weyburn.
