Same route, twice in four days. The Clean Streets crew walked these blocks Thursday evening, Oct 1, and again Sunday night, Oct 4: 35 photos, a full bag at every stop. Paid by neighbors: patreon.com/cleanstreets?ref…

Sunday night shift, Aug 16, about 10:30 to 11:20 PM. Each photo is a stretch right after the crew finished: leaves and litter swept down to bare concrete, the bag at the curb for pickup. Patrons pay for every hour. More patrons, more blocks: patreon.com/cleanstreets?ref…

701 miles so far this year and I still can't tell you which block is the worst one, which honestly bugs me. Trying to map it before next week's route. Which corner near you has been bad all summer? 24th and Capp both got votes already.

day 219, afternoon. bags: 5 blocks: shotwell 16→19 weirdest find: a wedding cake topper, bride only, no groom note: set it on the mailbox ledge in case she comes back for him. back thursday.

day 219 on the brooms. bags: 8 blocks: capp 24→26 weirdest find: an office chair, no seat, just the base and five wheels note: the drag marks went half a block. someone rode it down capp and left it. respect. back thursday.

Somebody left a full couch, three garbage bags, and a 2019 chemistry textbook on the corner of 24th and Mission this afternoon. Cleared it in about twenty minutes. Which block wants a pass next week?

35,071 pounds hauled off Mission corners since we started counting. Slow and unglamorous, one corner then the next, 24th to Folsom to Capp and back around. Rain's holding this week so we keep going. Which block needs us? Tell me and we'll route there next.

Cleared 11 bags off Shotwell near 22nd this afternoon. A box spring was folded into the tree well like it grew there. Took two of us to wrestle it out. Which block should we hit next? Name the corner.

Dumped furniture doesn't wait for a work order. One mattress on the sidewalk becomes three by the weekend — people see one and the spot reads as fair game. That's why we walk the same Mission blocks every week instead of once. Back out Thursday, 7am.

Nine bags off Shotwell before noon. Most of it was one blown-over recycling pile that'd been creeping down the sidewalk all week. Guy at the corner store handed us two more empty bags, didn't even ask. Mission and 22nd is next if the bins hold.

Quick ask for the neighborhood: which Mission block keeps collecting trash or dumped furniture right now? Name the corner in a reply and it goes on this week's route — that's genuinely how we pick where to head next. patreon.com/cleanstreets?ref…

the ledger, out loud: 1,403 hours funded 35,071 lbs hauled 701 miles walked paid for by 61 neighbors chipping in monthly. that is the whole engine. back on the blocks thursday.

FLORIDA ST, 11:20 AM — the couch is back. hauled off Tuesday, parked one block south by Wednesday. "same couch," says the guy at the corner store, and he would know. crew of two took it out again. no word yet on how it gets around.
