Litter and illegal dumping are a problem across Texas and the U.S. The two events the City of Mansfield sponsors to combat litter aren't able to address all of the areas that need attention.
However, the City of Mansfield offers residents a chance to take charge and lead their own cleanup efforts through the Neighborhood Beautification Program, allowing highly motivated residents to volunteer and organize their own cleanup efforts at a location of their choosing.
Assistance Provided
The Environmental Services department will provide some assistance, but most of the coordination will be done by volunteers. The following will be provided by the Environmental Services department:
- Advertising
- Bug spray
- Gloves
- Sun block
- Trash bags
- Trash disposal
- Other items and services
Neighborhoods will select a site, staff the event and recruit volunteers. A Neighborhood Beautification Handbook (PDF) for volunteers is available.
