Thanks for your comment, Tony, and your desire to keep Echo Park clean. We believe Echo Park TAP is looking into having more Solar Big Bellys installed along Sunset Blvd. If you’re interested in having more City trash cans installed, we recommend talking to the folks in LA Sanitation’s Solids Resources Division. You can call (800) 773-2489 or here’s a link to Sanitation’s service request form: http://www.lacitysan.org/solid_resources/refuse/service_request.htm

Unfortunately, garbage and litter has been getting worse lately in Echo Park along Echo Park Ave and Sunset Blvd. There are not enough garbage/recycling bins and cleanup services are not happening frequently enough. Can more garbage/recycling bins be installed and can cleanup services be scheduled more frequently?

I’ve been an echo park resident for 40 years and always felt embarrassed by the clutter and smell @Echo Park and Sunset. Thanks to the unwavering commitment of Ida Tallala, we can take pride in our landmark corner. Ida has been the driving force behind cleanliness and pride in our community. Thank you, Ida!
