Since 2009 FAB FULTON has provided sanitation services via a contracted third-party vendor, to empty overflowing garbage cans, sweep litter off sidewalks and keep the district tidy. During winter, our crew removes snow and ice at pedestrian crossings and plaza pathways. They open and close the public plazas in our BID. The maintenance team works 6-7 days a week depending on the season and are easily identifiable by their FAB uniforms! The FAB FULTON district was one of the first to secure recycling containers when the NYC City Council expanded the recycling program; there are several high-traffic locations along the corridor where containers are installed to serve the community. FAB FULTON also works with our contracted vendor to remove graffiti from buildings and security gates throughout the BID. Our sanitation crew removes smaller graffiti marks from lamp posts, mail boxes, and other street furniture. On average, more than 100 instances of graffiti are removed each month.
