Clean Up Australia Day

Clean Up Australia Day is Australia’s largest community-based environmental event held annually during the first week of March. The event encourages schools, businesses and the community to get involved to remove litter from local parks, roadsides, creeks and beaches.

Gladstone Regional Council supports the community during Clean Up Australia Day by arranging skip bins, clean up materials and supporting sites during their clean-ups.
