ACC Employee Litter Cleanups

During COVID-19 restrictions, employees may choose to pick-up roadside litter to fulfill work hours. Employees should work in groups of no more than four and should practice social distancing (stay six feet apart). Grabbers, bags, gloves, and safety vests will be provided. Gloves and vests should be washed before they are returned. Litter should only be handled with the grabbers.

Groups should communicate with one another to choose a pickup time and should designate a leader to pick up and return the supplies. The group leader will also need to report the hours, amount of trash and recycling collected, and the location of bags for pick up. Let KACCB know the planned date for the cleanup on the registration form. Please allow 24 to 48 hours for staff to prepare tools. You will receive confirmation that your tools are ready for pick up.

All tools and supplies must be picked up from the Solid Waste Department between the hours of 8 AM and 5 PM on the day of your cleanup.(725 Hancock Industrial Way, Athens, GA 30605). Tools can be dropped off during business hours in the same location from where they were picked up.

Thank you for keeping Athens-Clarke County Beautiful!
