Community members from across northeast Texas will be teaming up for the Don’t mess with Texas Trash-Off to beautify their community and roads next Saturday, April 6. The Trash-Off is the state’s largest one-day litter cleanup event, with multiple local events happening throughout Texas.
The Trash-Off is part of TxDOT’s litter prevention program. “This is the date we ask everybody to come together,” said TxDOT Atlanta District Adopt-A-Highway Coordinator Stephanie Fahrney. “It takes all of us to keep Texas beautiful. Our community really shows out and makes us proud.”
Every year, families, social clubs, Adopt-A-Highway groups, neighborhoods and Keep Texas Beautiful affiliates all over the state join forces to pick up litter and beautify their local communities.
