Volunteer Litter Cleanups

Jefferson County provides materials (gloves, bags, class II safety vests, backpacks) and support (traffic control, trash removal) for volunteers removing litter and trash from county-maintained roadways and rights of way. This program is not for yard debris, branches, or household trash and is coordinated by a person, people, or group in the community. We require one person from the community/organization to serve as the primary contact.
