Trash. Dumping. Overflowing bins. It’s not just an eyesore—it sends a message. And in University City, we believe that message should be pride, care, and community.

That’s why University City Partners launched a Trash Study to better understand where the problems are and how we can fix them. We’re gathering feedback from residents and businesses to help make our case to the City of Charlotte for more resources, smarter policies, and visible improvements.

Our residents have shown up. Now, we’re hoping our business community will do the same.

Why you? Because you see things others don’t. Whether it’s repeat dumping behind your plaza, a chronic lack of city cleanups along your stretch of road, or a neighboring property dragging the whole block down—your voice helps paint the full picture.

This survey takes just a few minutes, but it could shape real, long-term solutions. It’s quick and designed to elevate your concerns into action.

The deadline is coming up fast. Add your voice today and help create a cleaner, safer, more welcoming University City for everyone.
