Added: 2026-05-07

[00:00:00]probably going to be five eventually.

[00:00:09]Yeah, you know, we're we're back at 4803 Reed Road. Let's clean up. What up, Ruben? What up, Pedro? Let's clean up the block. We got Let's see.

[00:00:28]got two ladies already getting to it and we're gonna jump in as we can. So, here we go. I'm going to set up and get ready to roll.

[00:00:47]Let's see. I'm going to place everything on the right side.

[00:00:56]make it look easier. I'm assuming we're going to work all the way down here.

[00:01:07]So, biggest thing we can weave back, but I think the biggest thing will be just a recap for everyone.

[00:01:18]Here we are screening the block.

[00:01:27]You know, you want to get involved, you want to support, drop a comment, leave a gift, and send over a send over a share to your favorite person.

[00:01:47]Hey, Denise. Okay, Winnie, Texas.

[00:02:06]And then I don't know if it's easier for the stuff that's up top to rake it to the street.

[00:02:11]Yeah. Or and it's really like down here.

[00:02:15]I think it was just super easy to rake.

[00:02:17]Up here it's a lot of small things. It might be like picking and that's like what we I try to do early like see what makes sense and how we should do it. So I think definitely up top when it's small like this pickers we take our time down here we can rake it in like I'll rake I'll spend time raking all this up.

[00:02:35]You all can like um hang at the top and get all the small things.

[00:02:45]>> I have some pickers. I brought some pickers in a bin as well. But um hey Gail, if you want to grab looking for some pickers in a back seat on the right side, they might be in the middle bin, but we do have I think two more over here.

[00:03:16]All right, we got full cruise there.

[00:03:18]Let's see about six people.

[00:03:26]>> So, you know what I think now? I think we let them pick all this area and maybe we work on these bigger items. Get these bigger items out. Um, it's combination of we whacking but then letting them work on all this area here or even tackling that. I don't know. I'm open to suggestions on this part.

[00:03:52]>> I think that's a good idea. This seems pretty manageable for >> Yeah. Yeah. And it's like four more. So, we leave them and then we go over here.

[00:04:01]All right. Cool.

[00:04:05]>> All right. crew changing plans.

[00:04:11]The fellas are going to go over here, get more of the bigger items.

[00:04:22]I say we focus primarily on the heavy heavy stuff like even like the couches and things like that.

[00:04:34]one. Let me set this up over here.

[00:04:38]Good morning. Yeah, they're they're over here.

[00:04:42]>> Mhm.

[00:04:43]>> What you want us to do? What do you want?

[00:04:45]>> I say all of y'all just tackle clearing this up. Um yeah, clearing this up with the small things and then we'll come back through and weed whack to make it go down.

[00:04:56]And if we get through that real quick, I think we can tackle this pile together.

[00:05:02]We're going to go grab these big items and get those items out the way. So, I would say, yeah, you guys can take all the barrels.

[00:05:15][clears throat] All right. It's going to be on Pedro.

[00:05:27]No, don't put it on the ladies. That's what we're going to do. I know I'm all confused at this camera right here.

[00:05:36]And so what we want is uh to rake the middle together and then pick the top.

[00:05:42]So we need I would say one or two people focus on raking into a pile. And then once we rake it, the easiest way to pick it up is like this.

[00:05:54]So I put the bend down. I just rake it here instead of like individually.

[00:06:01]Cool.

[00:06:03]We have We have four of them brought out.

[00:06:07]There's one more right over here.

[00:06:12]All right, y'all. Watch his work.

[00:06:30]Oh, that's looking clean, Mr. Lines.

[00:06:32]Those lines looking clean already. I see you. All right.

[00:06:38]So, >> I got a meeting at 9. So, I got about another 20 25.

[00:06:42]>> Oh, yeah. We try to wrap up 9 8:45.

[00:06:46]So many days.

[00:06:48]>> Yeah, no worries. Yeah, we definitely I got a meeting at 9ine as well. So definitely don't stay longer on uh the weekdays and usually on my Wednesdays. I actually just literally hop in the car at 9:00.

[00:07:04]Yeah, it might make sense to There's also ants. Okay, I think I got it. I got it. I got it.

[00:07:21]Every time we clear the grass, them birds say, "Okay, time to eat.

[00:07:50]Um, I'm going to say how we can make it as organized as possible. So, whatever that looks like, we'll focus on putting all the bags right here.

[00:08:01]Tires there.

[00:08:04]I almost say eventually we'll just fold that up and put something on top of it.

[00:08:09]I have people to come get the tires because I know that's the >> there's one guy that will take them.

[00:08:15]>> Yeah, mostly.

[00:08:18]But most people try to leave them.

[00:08:22]I mean, worst case scenario, I'll throw it on top of my truck and take it somewhere. I can take this one with that bed. If you want to twoman that. Okay.

[00:09:33]>> [clears throat] >> Can we think uh about how we can knock that down? I want to wait for like big crowds to do this right here.

[00:10:20]>> Okay.

[00:10:21]>> Yeah.

[00:10:22]>> Yeah. Just like see if we can get all this big stuff and even like we can start here. Um like that the car parts.

[00:10:30]Grab these car parts. But I'mma grab this tire real quick.

[00:10:36]put it in the pile over here. Okay.

[00:10:39]>> But I think I'm trying to think what's in my car before we do that. So maybe grab those first. Like I don't have a sledgehammer, but something, you know, that's good. Okay. Hey, let's get the camera for that then.

[00:11:08]Don't Don't perk folks on the grass cuz he'll weed whack that. Yeah.

[00:11:16]Let's Yeah. Really just want to clear this all the trash cuz then we can all together move over here on this trash.

[00:11:37]All right, y'all. So, for those who are on, who are new, we're out here on the block cleaning up every day for free.

[00:11:44]This is what action looks like. So, if you want to get involved, if you want to help support, um you can buy some merch.

[00:11:50]Nobody's come to save us. Drop or just simply comment.

[00:12:04]I don't know what happened here, but clearly someone just literally brought some crates that I would think would be from a ship and dropped them on the ground.

[00:12:20]I wonder I'm going to bring the cart over.

[00:12:23]>> Just that one. I wish I had the bigger one. But it'll be it'll be easy to put it on top.

[00:12:31]No, it's just like awkward. Uh >> it's awkward.

[00:13:09]Uh, do we need some more trash can bags?

[00:13:12]Let's see. Okay, you got it. Okay.

[00:13:37]Thanks.

[00:14:07]Need some more bags if y'all need.

[00:14:33]and try to I would say it's annoying but I definitely think all this is like picking with your with the pickers >> everything up top just use the picker down here we'll rake >> okay >> and then leave the grass cuz um Pedro will come and cut it up and then we'll come afterwards to get the smaller Thanks for >> Yeah, perfect. You break it down. I'll take it.

[00:15:24]>> Careful where you're grabbing it cuz there's nails.

[00:15:26]>> Okay, cool.

[00:16:06]Okay. Baltimore in the house. Be more.

[00:16:10]Appreciate y'all. So, for everyone to know, we clean up every single day here in Sunnyside Houston, Texas. We do it completely free. We're all about showing the community. We're about action. And for those who want to save their community, show up. And that's what we do. So any way y'all can support is help helpful. Whether that's dropping a gift, purchasing some merch, nobody's coming to save us, or dropping a comment, helping the page grow.

[00:16:43]We have at least 8 to 10 people here on a Wednesday.

[00:16:48]We got I'm not going to say if it's architect firm Moody Nolan, they're here. We got non forprofits here. We got just regular community members here. So, we're all doing our part from different aspects.

[00:17:04]And I'm hoping I could take this as you take this overall this tall graph.

[00:17:33]Yo, check out these skills. Not that left one.

[00:17:39]>> Oh, as I said, I was like, check out the skills. But clearly that tire didn't go nowhere.

[00:17:47]>> Oh, man. Hey, they're replaceable.

[00:17:51]All right, let me see. Got one more. I play a bowl, so you know, it should be easy for me. Let me see.

[00:18:02]Almost striking.

[00:19:24]had like six roaches on it.

[00:19:26]>> Oh my goodness. You're the man for handling it. Can't stand them roaches.

[00:19:31]Thinking they own the spot.

[00:19:41]I see them in there, too. The small ones.

[00:19:49]Damn. [clears throat] Okay, I got to get my mind right, huh?

[00:19:53]Dang it. All right, Andrew, let's go.

[00:19:57]Lock in.

[00:19:59]Sheesh.

[00:20:01]Cuz Yeah, I see. They're literally just crawling, crawling all over. And the ants.

[00:20:08]The >> ants are going to be on these tops.

[00:20:21]Oh man, the worst part freaking these roaches.

[00:21:00]Oh, yes.

[00:21:30]help out >> possibly. Yeah, especially getting over these. Uh, we can probably stack some more on.

[00:21:40]Yeah, he's good.

[00:21:49]want to break some of these things down.

[00:21:53]>> Well, I guess unless you just keep breaking down and Pedro can help me balance. All right, want to get on the other side of it.

[00:22:01]>> Oh, man. Definitely watch the step.

[00:22:06]I'll say the right side's probably the loose loose size.

[00:22:10]All right, cool.

[00:22:16]Is it slipping? Oh, that remind me of freaking uh Mike. This dude had a whole nail go through his foot like first two weeks.

[00:22:36]I know that boy got infected, but one of the guys actually took him to the hospital.

[00:22:41]and got him whatever needed.

[00:22:49]Big one. I think it's what you think they they picking it to death over there. Think they should move?

[00:23:07]>> That's why I'm talking.

[00:23:10]Oh, yeah. Trying to see.

[00:23:15]All right, crew. Let's take a look.

[00:23:16]Let's take a look.

[00:23:22]>> So, okay. Could we switch gears?

[00:23:26]Um, there are some small things, but I think we want to be able to cut the grass to get lower and then pick it up.

[00:23:32]So, could we uh gather on that first pile and see? Y'all know what time it is? see how much we can actually get done.

[00:23:42]>> Okay, we only got about seven minutes, so scratch that idea. Seven to 10 minutes, we'll just make this perfect.

[00:23:49]We won't start nothing new. So, okay.

[00:24:00]You know what? Maybe you should get the blower.

[00:24:04]>> I can finish this.

[00:24:07]your bricks.

[00:24:07]>> Yeah. Blow all the grass off the off the ground or the broom cuz I got both of them in there.

[00:24:20]>> Oh, you were about to say maybe you should put this on the ground.

[00:25:02]Let's try all put that all together if possible on a cart.

[00:25:07]Right here >> like this. Then we can put some stuff in inside. And all this little stuff we could probably put uh in bags and have a team do.

[00:25:36]>> So, let's see.

[00:25:37]Maybe we can put this on top of it as well.

[00:25:46]The half me taller than me.

[00:25:52]>> Uh I say yeah. I mean it this way.

[00:25:57]>> Yep.

[00:26:00]>> Yep.

[00:26:01]>> That works.

[00:26:04]All that's good. We'll pick those other two big ones and then we'll just move on. It's about 8:37 right now.

[00:26:12]I'll take this.

[00:26:15]Oh yeah, we should do it together. But let me move these cameras.

[00:26:28]Of course, I didn't start it.

[00:26:43]>> So, for everyone who's new, we clean up Sunnyside Houston, Texas, seven days a week, completely free, just to bring pride back to community. Every day someone stops. Every day someone asks questions, but every day someone new comes and supports. So that's what we want. If you all want to support, you know, drop a comment, buy some merch, send a gift. Everything helps.

[00:27:14]Okay.

[00:28:00]I got the bottom one right here.

[00:28:18]Easy work.

[00:28:23]possibly hot.

[00:28:27]>> Trying to make sure this back don't man make sure his back don't tweak. Yo, be trying to tweak every two seconds out of nowhere.

[00:28:40]>> Super annoying. I didn't turn my small GoPro on. Hasn't been recorded this whole time.

[00:28:50]I do it uh I do regular speed, but I do speed it up like later on. So, I do regular speed so I can capture like good moments slow at normal speed. Um I'm going to come over here.

[00:29:04]No, we're going to leave it here. We just carry it to this part.

[00:29:12]Mhm.

[00:29:14]Let's carry it.

[00:29:40]There we go. It's good.

[00:30:04]You want me to put this one on there?

[00:30:06]>> Or flat. I mean, if we're holding it, I think it's okay.

[00:30:50]Let's draw this first one.

[00:31:16]Yeah.

[00:31:20]>> [clears throat] >> top.

[00:31:27]I'm going go help with those piles. I think they hold.

[00:31:45]All right, crew. Looking good over here.

[00:31:57]Yeah, we did that. What y'all think?

[00:32:04]Ladies were over here clearing this path. I think we can honestly Let me see if I could do a You're out of here. Hey, good work. Appreciate you.

[00:32:13]Yes, sir.

[00:32:18]All right, Pedro. Let me see them glasses. Let me just put a little touchup on this. See what I can do. See what I can do in 10 minutes. Let's see what I can do in Oh. Oh, the glasses.

[00:32:28]You see those? See if I could knock this out 10 minutes before my car.

[00:32:34]Let's see.

[00:32:36]And you know, while the camera, y'all saw a little bit, but we obviously got all that wood back there, brought it to the front. So, clearing this all up.

[00:32:47]I want to knock this out cuz I clearly didn't record enough on my phone or on my actual camera. So, now I got to step it up here. Great job, y'all. No, that's okay. I'll delete everything. It's not needed. So, that's okay.

[00:33:28]>> [clears throat] [snorts] >> Got a little bit of barrier there.

[00:37:22]Oh yeah, we're going to knock out at least walking path for sure.

[00:38:10]Hey, Pedro, could you help gather tools?

[00:39:00]Don't worry. Just don't want to hit you with it.

[00:39:10]>> All right. I got to test the weed whacker. You know, I had to do a little bit.

[00:39:20]Sweet.

[00:39:23]So much time we got. I got five minutes.

[00:39:26]All right, cool.

[00:39:28]Appreciate it, Nancy. So, for those who just joined in, yeah, we're wrapping up.

[00:39:33]I got a call at 9:00 a.m. So, you know, I got to get my face presentable for that. But we do this completely free.

[00:39:39]So, anything y'all can do to support, whether it's drop a comment, share, throw a gift, or even get a shirt, nobody's coming to save us, you know?

[00:39:47]It's all on us. And those who don't want to save themselves, well, hey, you can't be mad that someone else starts appreciating the area. So, we're here every single day just doing our part.

[00:40:00]Architects out here doing their part and community. But yeah, see you later, man.

[00:40:08]I just need to do one more fun thing and I'm out of here. So, I'm actually going to come and blow that. Yeah, I'm gonna come blow that real quick.

[00:40:28]Great stuff today. Oh, yeah. It's looking real good over here.

[00:40:39]Got you, >> man. I ain't even use it. The crazy part. I got it for uh the monthly clean.

[00:40:46]It was a little hectic start. So, I just was over here running around cuz we were so the strip was so long. I uh man, it was like a 10-minute walk just to get to the next location. So, it was a smart buy. Dumb execution.

[00:41:02]Let me see. Oh, you know what? Is that blower in there? Oh, it is. Okay, let me grab that.

[00:41:26]That looks good right there.

[00:42:05]Let me come down this path and let me blow this. Or should we pick that up?

[00:42:10]Should we pick this up?

[00:42:13]I was just going to blow it.

[00:42:16]>> Oh, that's okay. I thought that was a stress.

[00:42:43]I don't want to blow it on you.

[00:43:15]Sweet. Amazing job everyone. Uh you guys coming back tomorrow or was it today?

[00:43:20]Just curious. You know, I expected it to be one day but wasn't sure. I just know y'all had this this rains this week. So yeah. So no, we did amazing today.

[00:43:34]For sure.

[00:43:36]I mean Oh yeah, whenever y'all can.

[00:43:40]>> Whenever you can. But funny enough, yesterday we didn't even know that was a like a pothole right there or whatever that's called.

[00:43:47]>> It literally had dirt and everything on top of it. So no, we definitely did some work here. But I'mma go run and Gail, you're gonna stick around a little bit.

[00:43:58]>> Okay. Well, I'm gonna sit this here while you work then.

[00:44:04]>> But yeah, I'm about to hop on my call in two minutes. So, >> likewise. Appreciate y'all, Andrew.

[00:44:23]Uh, you can put it on top. Yeah. And then um I'll come get them. So I I separate the dirty ones.

[00:44:35]Sweet. Okay, crew. I'll be in the car, but I probably won't see y'all when y'all take off.

[00:44:45]if you can bring everything to the car.

[00:44:47]Uh yeah.

[00:45:09]All right, Sia, we're done. Let me flip the camera. We're done.

[00:45:15]Oh yeah, I got to get this off my face before this meeting. So definitely support any way you can. You know, we leading by action and taking ownership of our community.

[00:45:29]Support looks like many different ways.

[00:45:31]Literally dropping a comment, share, coming back tomorrow. All that stuff's helpful. So until then, peace.
