Litter Pickups

The Litter Pickup Support Program advocates for a cleaner Blount County by encouraging residents to help eliminate litter in their communities. Volunteers can join organized litter pickup events or schedule their own cleanups with free supplies provided, including pickers, gloves, vests, and bags.
