AAR EQUIPMENT
MCDOT wants to help you stay safe as you conduct your cleanings so we provide safety equipment at no charge. Reflective vests, gloves, pik sticks and other items are available upon request
and can be picked up at the Community Outreach office.
We continue to research and try out other types of equipment such as bag holders, picks, heavy duty gloves but due to a limited budget we are not able to purchase a large variety. If your business is interested in sponsoring/purchasing equipment for the AAR program, please contact our office! We would recognize your donation or sponsorship by highlighting your business on the AAR website. Email [email protected] for more information!

You, the participant has agreed to keep your adopted road segment as clean as possible, with at least six roadside clean-ups a year (the equivalant of every other month) and to report these cleanings to our office (volunteers who clean more frequently can combine these into one monthly report). Make sure when reporting to include the date of cleaning, total bags of trash picked up and type of bags used (MCDOT orange bag, lawn/leaf bag, grocery store size bag, etc.)
Under the guidelines, small amounts of litter (2-3 bags) should be disposed of through your normal trash collection, but larger amounts (4 or more bags) or large items that cannot be handled by you can be hauled away by the Division of Highway Services. Call 311 and tell the operator that you are an AAR participant requesting a one-time trash pick up, give the exact location of trash or submit a service request on the MC311 website. You will be assigned a work order number that you can use when following up. If you are disposing of loads greater than 500lbs yourself, request a Transfer Station fee waiver card to take with you when dumping this trash at the Transfer Station located at Shady Grove).
*NOTE: Blue handle bags are used to separate recyclable materials from the litter and debrise that is picked up. Highway Maintenance will not deliver these bags to the Recycling Center so
DO NOT leave with the other bags of trash for regular roadside pick up. You will need to bring the blue bags home and empty them into your recycle bin for your regular scheduled recycling collection. To find out what is recycable visit the seciton on recycling below.
Don't Forget - You can process your own service request online! You can arrange for trash pick up 24/7 by submitting a service request on the MC311 website CLICK HERE or you can call 311 Monday thru Friday between 7:00am - 7:00pm.
