Litter Control

Reasons why people litter:
  • Trash has already accumulated in the area
  • They feel no sense of ownership of the property
  • They think someone else will clean up after them
 
7 Sources of Litter:
  • Motorists (including boaters)
  • Pedestrians
  • Improperly containerized commercial refuse products (dumpsters)*
  • Improperly containerized household refuse
  • Loading/unloading docks and areas
  • Uncovered vehicles (pickup trucks)
  • Construction and demolition sites
