MONTICELLO, NY – Sullivan County’s Annual Litter Pluck launches April 1 and runs all the way through October 31, 2025. By resolution of the county legislature, the disposal fee is waived during that time for roadside, public trail and water bodies/shoreline litter at County-operated transfer stations.

This annual event is coordinated by the Sullivan County Parks, Recreation and Beautification Department and the Sullivan County Division of Public Works.

“This is a great way to ‘clean ourselves up’ as we get ready for spring, summer and fall,” says chair of the legislature Nadia Rajsz. “One of the first impressions we make on anyone—residents and visitors—is the state of our roads. We can really put the shine on this beautiful area, and keep it that way!”

Residents who wish to participate in the litter pluck may pick up their free disposal coupons, along with program guidelines, at their town or village hall, any county-operated transfer station, or the Sullivan County Parks, Recreation and Beautification Department in the Government Center, 100 North Street, Monticello. Participants will be asked to register at the county-operated transfer station at the time of disposal.
