The 2024 Statewide “Don’t Drop It On Alabama” Spring Cleanup will be held the entire month of April. The cleanup is held annually and is coordinated by Alabama PALS (People Against a Littered State), which also coordinates and implements the Alabama Coastal Cleanup (partnership with ADCNR), the Alabama Clean Campus Program, the Alabama Adopt-A-Mile and Adopt-A-Stream programs (partnership with ALDOT) statewide. Each of these efforts are made possible through partnerships with business and industry, state associations, and state agencies that are committed to making Alabama a leader in environmental volunteerism and awareness. The “Don’t Drop It On Alabama” Spring Cleanup is offered to all 67 Alabama counties, municipalities, and statewide volunteer groups. More than 140 cities, counties and volunteer groups are participating in the 2024 cleanup effort.
The 2024 “Don’t Drop It On Alabama” Spring Cleanup is made possible through the following PALS Sustaining Partners: ALDOT, ALFA, Coca-Cola United, Alabama Farmers Cooperative, Vulcan Materials Company, Honda, The Association of County Commissions of Alabama and The Poarch Band of Creek Indians.
Alabama PALS also partners with the Alabama Community College Systems campuses and Alabama RC&D Councils for the 2024 statewide cleanup effort in April.
PALS distributed approximately 165,000 bags statewide for the 2024 cleanup, as well as all materials and supplies to all participating cities, counties and volunteer groups. Volunteers interested in participating are encouraged to contact the local coordinator to join an existing cleanup or to establish their own local cleanup within their respective community.
