Police Officer Didarul Islam represented the very best of our department. He was protecting New Yorkers from danger when his life was tragically cut short today. We join in prayer during this time of incomprehensible pain. We will forever honor his legacy. #FidelisAdMortem

We can learn a lesson from these very creative former 6th graders at Metropolitan Expeditionary Learning School! They shared their zines with us with a great message – YES, composting is important!. Learn about composting rules & opportunities:

"How did they ever make a bin for Nolita?". Put those oranges in your compost bin and we'll collect them every week like clockwork. On what would have been Stanley Kubrick’s 97th birthday, join New York’s Strongest in marching the paths of glory to clean streets.

Overgrown weeds. Trash. Ick. If you own a lot in NYC – you must KEEP IT CLEAN. If we end up cleaning it for you, we will BILL YOU for the work. Thankfully, #NewYorksStrongest got this lot in the Bronx back to clean.

#NewYorksStrongest are delivering for the people of East Harlem by joining multiagency efforts on 125th Street – because ALL residents deserve a city where quality-of-life issues are identified and addressed. We’ll be back however many times it takes to get the streets clean –

Litter baskets are for coffee cups & candy wrappers – NOT for dropping off your household or business trash. And not for recyclable cardboard boxes!. Who is the gill-ty party?!. Members of #NewYorksStrongest did a fin-tastic job cleaning this corner in @susanzhuangnyc’s district.

Someone have a party in the bike lane?. Bike lanes, shoulders of roadways, sidewalks and streets are NOT places to leave your litter. Don't mess with New York. Don't trash our city.

Cameras are EVERYWHERE! Don't get caught doing something you *maybe* shouldn't be doing. Thinking about doing something naughty, like dumping trash in the City? We've got video cameras all over. We WILL catch you - and you will pay the price!

Earlier today, Acting Sanitation Commissioner Lojan joined @NYCMayor Adams on a walk-though of the Hub. While Sanitation has long-worked to attend to the area around 149th and 3rd, a new all-of-government approach will give the people of the South Bronx the quality of life they

While we’ve got some big machinery to help with cleaning, sometimes there’s no substitute for the hard work of getting it done by hand!. Yes, our Highway Unit uses mechanical brooms – but New York’s Strongest are also out in force, sweeping and raking litter and debris to keep

No. Nope. Don't do this!. We caught these DUMPERS in the act - leaving a pile of broken asphalt along the street & sidewalk in the Bronx. We issued two $4,000 violations and impounded the truck. Don’t dump on our City.💥
