Earth Day Roadside Trash Pick-UP April 22-26

April 22-26 Peterborough roadside litter pick-up

There are several ways to participate in Peterborough’s annual Earth Day roadside pick-up April 22 (Earth Day) through the week.

Contact the Conservation Commission to join a team or to sign up for a few stretches of the town's 90 miles of roads that need volunteers (547-7978).

Those unable to participate in the Earth Day pick-up can deliver blue bags filled with roadside trash to the recycling center before or after the official period without the usual requirement of separation for recycling.

Reminder: Safety first. Wear bright clothing (“hunter orange” encouraged), and always be mindful of traffic.
