The Best Carnival Cleaning Service Everyone Wants to Immortalize

Santa Cruz de Tenerife has once again demonstrated its commitment to cleanliness and citizen well-being during the celebration of its renowned Carnival. After several days of festivities, the city has effectively managed waste collection, ensuring a clean and safe environment for residents and visitors.

The City Council, in collaboration with the concessionaire company Valoriza SA, implemented a special cleaning operation that allowed for the collection of more than 230 tons (209 metric tons) of waste. This was during the first weekend of Carnival and the night of Monday, March 3.

This operation, which included thorough actions after major events such as the Opening Parade, the Day Carnival, and street parties, involved the participation of more than 190 workers and 63 specialized vehicles.

Carlos Tarife, First Deputy Mayor and Councilor for Public Services, praised the speed and efficiency with which the operation was carried out. Tarife assured that the city regains its splendor in record time.

The masterminds are the workers, who, as soon as the music stops, begin to restore normalcy to the city so that by 8:30 or 9:00 in the morning everything is in the place where it should be.

"Santa Cruz de Tenerife has established itself as a benchmark in waste management during major events. The work of the operators has been extraordinary, allowing the city to wake up clean every day despite the massive influx of people," Tarife highlighted.

"The masterminds are the workers, who, as soon as the music stops, begin to restore normalcy to the city so that by 8:30 or 9:00 in the morning everything is in the place where it should be," added the First Deputy Mayor, Carlos Tarife.

The operation was structured in several phases. During the early morning, once the celebrations were over, the cleaning teams began collecting waste in the main affected areas. Subsequently, a thorough washing with high-pressure water and disinfectant products was carried out to eliminate dirt and possible bad odors.

The strategy also included the installation of more than 500 additional trash cans and containers in the points of highest public concentration, thus facilitating the proper disposal of waste.

In addition to the cleaning work, the City Council launched environmental awareness campaigns, promoting the use of reusable cups and encouraging sustainable practices among attendees. These initiatives aim to reduce the environmental impact of the festivity and raise awareness among citizens about the importance of collaborating in maintaining urban cleanliness.

The data from the operation reflect its success. In just a few hours after each day of Carnival, the main streets of Santa Cruz returned to normal, allowing the city's daily rhythm to remain unaffected.

"The challenge was enormous, but we have shown that with planning and effort, public spaces can be kept in optimal conditions, even after large-scale events," added Tarife.

Meanwhile, the residents of Santa Cruz de Tenerife agree in highlighting the effectiveness of the cleaning operation deployed during the Carnival.

After nights of partying and crowds, in a few hours the streets return to normal, without a trace of waste or bad odors.

"It's impressive how everything is clean after the party. You go out in the morning, and it seems like nothing happened," commented a resident of the city center.

The City Council has received numerous congratulations for the speed and effectiveness of the service, ensuring that the city looks impeccable every day of the celebration.

With this deployment, Santa Cruz de Tenerife reaffirms its commitment to sustainability and the quality of life of its citizens, establishing itself as a model to follow in cleaning management during large events.
