Great American Cleanup registration now open
Registration is now open for Keep Pennsylvania Beautiful’s 2018 Great American Cleanup of PA. This annual event is held March 1-May 31.
During this period, registered events can get free trash bags, gloves and safety vests from PennDOT district offices, as supplies last.
Events can be litter cleanups, illegal dump cleanups, beautification projects, special collections, and education events and must be registered through the Great American Cleanup of PA website, www.gacofpa.org, to receive free cleanup supplies.
As part of this event, the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection and Pennsylvania Waste Industries Association are sponsoring Let’s Pick It Up PA April 7-30. During this time, trash collected at registered events can be taken to participating landfills free or for a reduced cost with prior approval.
Register your 2018 event at www.gacofpa.org. Contact Michelle Dunn, Great American Cleanup of PA program coordinator, with questions at 1-877-772-3673 ext. 113 or mdunn@keeppabeautiful.org.
