Register now for a National spring clean kit by Louth County Council
Louth County Council is encouraging community members to get involved in the National spring clean 2025.
Registration is now open to get involved to help clean the community here.
National Spring Clean is Ireland’s most popular, well recognized and successful anti-litter initiative. Taking place during the whole month of April and now in its 25th year, the campaign encourages every sector of society to actively participate and take responsibility for litter, by actually conducting clean ups in their own local environment. National Spring Clean traditionally takes place throughout the month of April.
National Spring Clean has been operated by An Taisce since 1999 in partnership with the Department of Environment, Heritage & Local Government and Local Authorities and is sponsored by the Wrigley Company Ltd. The size and scale of National Spring Clean has grown steadily and significantly over the years.
Taking part in the National Spring Clean is very straight forward.
Organize for a clean up of your local area, to take place any time during April, and register your event online, by phone, fax or post. To register online click on the ‘Sign Up’ icon below.
Once you have registered you will receive a FREE clean-up kit from An Taisce.
The clean up kit contains valuable tips on how to hold a successful clean-up event, a poster to advertise your event, ideas on how to make your event different and lots more useful information.
The pack also includes plastic bags in which to collect your litter and recyclable material, some tabards to keep your clothes clean and some gloves to keep your hands safe and clean.
Because National Spring Clean encourages recycling, a number of colour coded bags are provided for collection of litter that can be recycled. Recycling helps reduce the production of greenhouse gases and therefore climate change read more here.
Once you have a firm date for your event you should contact your Local Authority’s Environmental Officer.
Registration is now opened for National Spring Clean... ️ ♻️
