Our roadways are a welcome center for our counties and are truly a "window to our soul". Before ever leaving their car, visitors form an impression of our communities and residents by what they see as they drive through. What are our roads telling visitors about us? Do they reflect carelessness and neglect in litter scattered about, or do they show our pride in caring for our communities and keeping them clean ?
Each of our counties participates in the state Adopt-a-Road program. You can join this effort to make a difference in your own community. It's as easy as filling out an application. To adopt one of your county or township roads, click on one of the links here.
When you become a member, your group or organization will clean a two mile stretch of road 2-4 times per year for a two year period. The local litter prevention program provides gloves, bags, and disposal of what you pick up. The feeling of pride you have when you look at the sign with your group's name on it will reflect the pride we all have in showing our best face to the world.

RECYCLING RIGHT
Wash out your containers before you recycle them, get all the food or liquid out of it.
Deposit ONLY the accepted materials in the bins. Every site has signage telling you what is accepted. Anything else is a contaminant and has to be sorted out as trash. That increases the cost of the recycling program!
Do not put plastic bags in the bins. Workers have to manually open every bag to get the recyclables out, and the bags are contaminants to the clean recyclables.
Do Not Leave Trash at the drop-off sites - either in or around the bins.
Please help us continue to provide this service to you by using, not abusing. If you see someone dumping at drop-off sites, get their license plate number and call your county recycling office right away.
