Charles County Community Cleanup
Take a look at our 2023 Cleanup Highlights
Are you interested in organizing a litter cleanup of a local public space? Join us for the Charles County Community Cleanup on Saturday, May 18, 2024. Accepted registrations will receive supplies and trash disposal. Please send us your contact information at the below link.
Charles County Government would like to thank our partners and sponsors, without whom this event could not be made possible. The Charles County Community Cleanup event is a countywide cleanup effort that is part of the Keep Charles County Beautiful initiative.
Help improve Charles County's waterways and combat litter by volunteering in a watershed cleanup. Volunteer opportunities range from collecting litter to leading and organizing a cleanup site. Community and Adopt-A-Road groups are encouraged to participate at a site or establish a new site. This is an excellent opportunity for students and Scouts to earn community service hours.
