Statewide Litter Pick Up Today

In support of Lt. Gov. Pamela Evette’s “Grab A Bag SC 2020” cleanup program, the South Carolina Department of Transportation (SCDOT) plans to deploy employees across the state to pick up roadside litter on Tuesday, Nov. 17, 2020. SCDOT’s “Fall Cleanup” will include hundreds of employees, from headquarters to the county offices, joining together to help pick up litter. Motorists are asked to use caution and be on the lookout for SCDOT employees when driving during litter clean-up operations for the safety of everyone involved. Lt. Gov. Evette kicked off the 2020 litter pickup program in October at Clemson University with PalmettoPride and the university’s Solid Green campaign. This statewide initiative is a safe litter pickup event that encourages South Carolinians to help clean up litter, one bag at a time.
