Fall is in the air and that means it’s time for our Fall Cleanup Campaign. Residents of Sebastian County are encouraged to use the Cleanup Site dumpsters, to pick up litter, tackle illegal dumps and do whatever else it takes to put a shine on Sebastian County. This countywide cleanup campaign is in coordination with the Great American Cleanup. Proof of Sebastian County residency is required by Arkansas Driver’s License for disposal of trash at the cleanup site.
The County Campaign will take place on Saturdays starting September 14th and go through October 12, 2024. “By working together to clean up our properties we all can make a difference and make our community more beautiful, safer and a healthier place to live, work and play,” says Judge Steve Hotz. As in past cleanup campaigns, dumpsters will be placed in several locations throughout the County for County residents to have a convenient place to bring collected trash for safe and legal disposal.
