The 2023 Spring Litter Sweep takes place April 15-29. Litter Sweep is the N.C. Department of Transportation’s biannual statewide roadside litter removal initiative.
Residents throughout the state participate in local efforts to help clean up North Carolina’s roadways. In addition to volunteers, NCDOT maintenance crews devote one week of their time to pick up litter and collect orange bags placed on the roadsides by volunteer pickups.
Volunteers are provided cleanup supplies, such as reversible orange/blue trash bags, gloves and orange safety vests, from their local NCDOT County Maintenance Yard office. If you or your team needs supplies, or if you have any questions, contact your local NCDOT litter program coordinator below.
