Register for the Great American Cleanup

Spring and Earth Day are around the corner -- what better way to celebrate than by joining your neighbors in Rockland's famous annual trash cleanup campaign? Use the links on our cleanup webpage to get more info and register yourself and/or your family and volunteers. Keep Rockland Beautiful supplies free trash bags, litter grabber tools and other useful stuff. In the photo below, Sonia Mason's crew shows off the spoils of their raid on the Nauraushaun Brook in Pearly River last spring. Where are you cleanup up?

Special Event Recycling - Cleartainers for Loan

KRB has nine "Cleartainers" to loan to event organizers who want to provide recycling receptacles for bottles and cans. More units are available from the RC Solid Waste Management Authority. Used at street fairs, music festivals and sports events, placed next to trash cans, the Cleartainers convey a strong "green" message to visitors. Call KRB to schedule your Cleartainer loan, or for more information about recycling.
