Tipperary County Council is supporting a Countywide Clean-up from the 11th to the 13th  of October. 

The council is encouraging everyone to join in this Countywide clean-up event  –  as a group, of neighbours, friends, work colleagues or joining  with the Local Tidy Town Group, Residents Group or Sports Club.

The campaign is urging everyone to take personal responsibility for disposing of their litter correctly to “Keep Tipp Litter Free” and to protect the environment for now and future generations. 

Groups are asked to register on the council website by October 4th at this link here. Registered groups will receive a free litter pick pack which will be available for collection from Council Offices in Nenagh, Clonmel, Thurles, Tipperary and Carrick-on-Suir from Tuesday 8th October.

Litter collected in the specially branded bags will be accepted free of charge at any of Tipperary County Council’s recycling centres the week after the Clean-up from 14th to 19th October or groups can arrange for council staff to collect the materials gathered during the clean-up.

Arrangements for collections can be organised by contacting the Environment & Climate Action Section, Civic Offices Clonmel or Nenagh on 0818 06 5000 or emailing [email protected] with precise details of group, pick up location and number of bags. 

Photos submitted of clean-ups will be entered in a special draw. Photos can be emailed to [email protected]
