Litter is a growing problem that affects countryside and urban areas alike. Annually on average an estimated 25 million tonnes of rubbish are dropped in Britain. This litter is more than an eyesore that spoils the environment, it's also a hazard to pets and wild animals.
If you are planning to organise a community litter pick in Dorset, we can help:
- provide general guidance
- provide information on a risk assessment
- loan equipment including litter pickers and high visibility vests
- assist with the waste disposal
Please use our form to register your litter pick and a waste officer will contact you.
Dorset Council does not have an unlimited number of litter picking kits so please give plenty of notice to avoid disappointment.
