Councils
Why should your council get involved in Clean Up Australia Day?
The support of Councils is critical to the success of Clean Up Australia Day and the Great Northern Clean Up and without this, the events would simply not be able to operate.
Councils can participate at many different levels, depending on the resources which you are able to provide. Examples of how you may be able to support the event can be found below:
- Removing the rubbish from registered Clean Up sites
- Promoting the event on the ground through local media, community networks and advertising
- Organising Council-led Clean Up Sites
- Ensuring safety is paramount on the day at each different Site
By getting involved in the Day, Councils engage the local community, raise the profile of the council while creating a positive outcome for their local environment.
Participating councils will be given access to Clean Up Site registrations within their area through our website which will help councils organise rubbish removal on the day. For further information please contact cleanup@cleanup.com.au.
