How YOU Can Keep Lee County Beautiful:

We as Lee county citizens have inherited such a beautiful piece of this world. We are blessed with glorious mountains, rolling hills, deep green valleys, and streams that are second to none in beauty. It is our duty as citizens of this county to help maintain what we have been given. Below is a list of ways that an everyday citizen can help Keep Lee County Beautiful:

 

  • Do NOT Litter: If you would like a free litter bag to put inside your vehicle please contact the Litter Control Office

  • Keep your property free of litter and clutter: Old cars, washers, dryers, garbage, scrap metal, and much more can be considered as litter (many of these items can be sold at local scrap yards)

  • Volunteer: Call the Litter Control Office to ask about ways you can volunteer and get involved

  • Report Illegal Dumping and Heavy Littered Roads: This will help the Litter Office identify locations that need to be cleaned


​

Take ALL solid waste (building debris, tree trimmings, etc.) that is not household garbage to the transfer station located in Jonesville. Their prices are reasonable:

  • General Waste: $37.50 per ton

  • Tires: $60.00 per ton

  • Metal: FREE

​

Convenience Centers (dumpsters) are located throughout the county and they take Household Garbage, White Goods (metal), mattresses, and couches. They are free for use by Lee County Residents!

​

Litter Control Programs
