The City of Fayetteville encourages residents to participate in Fayetteville Beautiful to reduce the amount of litter and other pollutants on city streets and in stormwater systems.

Fayetteville Beautiful is scheduled for Saturday, May 6 from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. Volunteers should meet at the open lot at 447 Murchison Road. Litter bags, gloves, water and snacks will be provided to volunteers.
Registration, an interactive map, rules and photos from past events can be found on the Fayetteville Beautiful webpage at https://www.fayettevillenc.gov/city-services/parks-and-recreation/fayetteville-beautiful.

The city-sponsored program is dedicated to encouraging others to take greater responsibility for improving their environment through litter abatement, waste reduction and beautification programs.

Fayetteville Beautiful aligns with the city’s “Put Waste in its Place” campaign that reminds residents and visitors of their role in ensuring Fayetteville remains a desirable place to live, work and recreate. Here are a few ways residents can help with putting waste in its place: Use reusable containers; recycle bottles, cans, paper, plastics; adopt a street/site and keep it clean; provide adequate trash and recycling containers, place conspicuously and empty often.

Fayetteville Beautiful happens twice per year, in the spring and fall. Volunteers collected 1.3 tons of litter at the Spring 2022 event.
