If you want a cleaner community, grab your family and friends and head out to a neighborhood, park or creek to pick up litter as part of Durham’s Annual Big Sweep in October.Since 2005, more than 6,000 Durham Big Sweep volunteers have collected 190,000 pounds of litter from trails, parks, roadsides, and waterways. “Big Sweep shows the power of the Durham community,” said Keep Durham Beautiful Executive Director Tania Dautlick. “We can all do our part to transform litter hot spots into green spots.”
Keep Durham Beautiful, along with City and County departments, organize and support the cleanups. Big Sweep coordinators provide bags, gloves, litter grabbers, and vests for volunteers. The City of Durham’s Neighborhood Improvement Services Department and Durham County General Services Department then ensure that all collected litter is properly recycled or sent to the landfill.
