Adopt-a-Spot, Great American Cleanup, Spring Electronic Recycling Events and Household Hazardous Waste Collections

Spring brings a time to be outside and enjoy the fresh air. If you're looking for something different to do and want to spruce up your neighborhood, consider Adopt-a-Spot. Just follow these 3 steps and make a positive impact!

1. Pick a street, trail, park or roadway in Cass County and complete this simple registration form.
2. Commit to picking up litter at your spot at least twice a year, especially spring and fall. 
3. Report your hours and trash amounts every time you do a cleanup. 

The Great American Cleanup is the nation’s largest community improvement program that kicks off the first day of spring, March 20, and extends through June 20, 2021.

Each year, the Great American Cleanup engages millions of volunteers and participants to beautify and unify communities across the country in a grassroots spring-cleaning movement.KCCB, along with other organizations in the Keep America Beautiful national network of 700 community-based affiliates, plan volunteer events and education programs that help to renew public parks, trails, and recreation areas; clean and restore waterways; remove litter and debris from roadways, stormwater grates, and public spaces; reduce waste and improve recycling; and plant trees, flowers, and community gardens.

We'll partner with local schools, 4-H clubs, Scouts, and community organizations to plan litter cleanups across Cass County. Contact us for trash bags, gloves and other litter supplies. KCCB will award organizations up to $50 per mile and $10 per acre for picking up roadside litter. Complete an application form today and reserve supplies.
