The city of Oberhausen calls its residents to a large spring cleaning. From March 22 to 29, 2025, citizens have the opportunity to actively contribute to cleanliness and quality of life in their area. This initiative is organized by the city administration in cooperation with WBO GmbH and aims to remove garbage in parks, playgrounds, streets and squares. Registration for participation is possible both individually and in groups, ideal for friends, families or neighborhoods.

With the support of sponsors such as the Aquapark, Stoag, Topgolf, Gasometer and Westfield Centro, comprehensive equipment is provided for all participants. These include warning vests, gloves, gripping tongs and garbage bags made available by the WBO. The waste collected will be picked up by the WBO after completing the actions.

This is how one of the tours begins on Saturday, March 22nd, at 2:00 p.m. on the railway line and the stop in the old center. This will end around 3:30 p.m. Further tours are planned in Sterkrade on March 28th and on March 29 at the colliery and coking plant, also at similar times.
