Maintaining clean streets is a vital service that StreetsLA provides to enhance the quality of life in Los Angeles. One of the most visible aspects of this service is the fleet of street sweepers operated by our dedicated Motor Sweeper Operators. These sweepers are essential for keeping our city clean, preventing debris from entering our waterways, and reducing the risk of flooding caused by clogged storm drains.
In Los Angeles, over 4,700 curb miles are designated with “No Parking” signs to facilitate effective street sweeping. These parking restrictions ensure that our sweepers can access the curb and thoroughly clean the streets. Adhering to these parking rules is crucial for residents to avoid citations and contribute to cleaner neighborhoods.

Due to staffing shortages resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent citywide hiring freezes, adjustments to the street sweeping schedule have become necessary. Previously swept weekly, routes are now serviced biweekly. This means your street will be swept either during the first and third weeks of the month or the second and fourth weeks.
To help residents stay informed about these changes and avoid parking violations, StreetsLA offers a notification system. By signing up, you will receive alerts 24 and 48 hours before street sweeping is scheduled for your registered location. You can register through the form on our website or use this interactive map to find your street and sign up for notifications for multiple locations where you frequently park.
We encourage all Los Angeles residents to pay close attention to posted street signs to prevent parking tickets. Parking enforcement is active, and vehicles parked in restricted zones on sweeping days will be ticketed. Utilize the Street Sweeping Near Me webpage and our notification system to stay updated on scheduled sweeping times and plan your parking accordingly. For detailed information about parking regulations and enforcement, please visit the LA Department of Transportation’s parking information pages.
Your cooperation in keeping streets clear of parked cars on sweeping days is greatly appreciated. By ensuring access for our street sweepers to the curb where debris accumulates, you directly contribute to making our streets safer, more mobile, and environmentally sustainable. Thank you for partnering with us to enhance the cleanliness and quality of life in your neighborhood.
