Mercer County is rallying its citizens to clean up the streets, highways, and parks of the region. They will be launching a historic 40-day litter cleanup campaign starting on Friday, March 20th and going to April 30th.
They will be calling the regional blitz, “Love Where You Live — Keep Mercer Clean”. It will asking citizens to adopt a location, highway, or street during the campaign.
The counties ultimate goal is to instill recycling and litter pick-up habits for its citizens.
The regional blitz will incorporate portable dumpsters, free dumping days at the Mercer County Landfill, a free tire disposal program, community and civic involvement, and an educational component for area school children.
