Coastal Rivers and the Town of Damariscotta are partnering to organize a community-wide trash pick-up in celebration of Earth Day 2023!

Between April 21 and April 23, Damariscotta residents are encouraged to pick up trash in front of their homes and businesses.

Bright orange bags will be available to pick up starting Wednesday, April 19 at the Damariscotta Police Department or Coastal Rivers’ offices at Round Top Farm in Damariscotta. For safety, please wear bright clothing and avoid picking up anything “sharp, furry, or suspicious-looking.”

Town employees will pick up any orange bags on the side of the road Monday morning, April 24, and take them to the transfer station.

Please note, this service is provided for the Earth Day roadside clean-up only; participants are asked not to include any household trash.
