N.C. FALL LITTER
SWEEP
GET INVOLVED - Sept 14-28
​The 2024 Fall Litter Sweep is taking place Sept. 14-28​.​
Litter prevention starts by raising everyone's awareness of North Carolina’s litter laws that improperly disposing trash of any kind can be illegal.
Not only is it unsightly, litter costs millions of dollars to clean up and can have a negative impact on tourism and how people perceive the state while they travel through it.
​
Traditionally scheduled for the last two weeks of April and September, 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.
