On April 12th, 2025, Plympton families will have an opportunity to pitch in and help clean up the considerable amount of litter that has accumulated along the town’s roadsides. The Plympton Garden Club and the Historical Society are announcing that the annual Townwide Clean- up will be held on Saturday, April 12, with a rain date of Sunday, April 13. The hours of the cleanup are 8:30 a.m. until 1 p.m.
To participate, residents are asked to stop by and speak to the volunteers at a table set up on the parking lot in front of the Town House on Palmer Road the day of the event. There they will be provided with trash bags and other tools and receive a street assignment. Other important facts for volunteers to know include:
The Plympton Highway Department will be picking up full trash bags and transporting them to the transfer station.
The orange “pay as you throw” bags will not be required for this project. Instead, residents can use the bags provided at the volunteers table.
Once trash bags are filled, they can be left by the side of the road, and the Highway Department vehicles will pick them up.
Given that it has been two years since the last cleanup, Plympton’s picturesque roads are really needing help! We hope that there will be a strong turnout for this important effort. See you on Saturday, April 12!
