How the Tool Warehouse Works
Keep Houston Beautiful (KHB) maintains a warehouse filled with the necessary items to assist community groups with their landscaping/beautification plantings and community/neighborhood cleanup projects. These supplies are available on a first come first serve basis, so please reserve your tools at least two weeks in advance.
  • Supplies are loaned only to groups, not individuals, for the purpose of a community-driven cleanup or beautification project.
  • All tools and supplies are to be stored in a secure location during the loan period.
  • The borrower is responsible for any missing or damaged tools (other than normal wear and tear).
  • Supplies are picked up and returned to the KHB Tool Warehouse located at 5614 Neches, 77026 (inside the City of Houston Solid Waste Management Department's Environmental Service Center).
  • All tools and supplies are to be returned to the KHB Tool Warehouse in a timely and responsible manner.
  • All hand tools and equipment are to be properly cleaned before being returned to the KHB Tool Warehouse.
  • In consideration of borrowing and/or using equipment belonging to Keep Houston Beautiful, the group agrees to acknowledge Keep Houston Beautiful as a participant in any activity in which the equipment of Keep Houston Beautiful is used in any publication in which the activity is mentioned or discussed—including but not limited to company newsletters, press releases, and online social media and blog entries—in clear written form.  Keep Houston Beautiful prefers that any such publication also include Keep Houston Beautiful’s logo, available for download : khb_one_shared_brand_logo.jpg
