Clean Communities

The Clean Communities Program is a statewide initiative dedicated to promoting environmental care and maintaining the beauty of our shared spaces. The key focus of Clean Communities is education about litter control, with the ultimate goal of eliminating litter from Morristown.
Here in Morristown, the program provides educational opportunities for schools, civic organizations, and the business community to raise awareness and inspire action. Clean Communities works in close partnership with Public Works and Property Maintenance to encourage public compliance with Town Code.
The program also organizes two major annual cleanup events, bringing the community together to beautify our town. Funded by the Town of Morristown and an entitlement program from the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (DEP), Clean Communities is committed to fostering a cleaner, greener environment for everyone.

Adopt-a-Spot
Welcome to Morristown's Adopt-A-Spot Program! This initiative offers community members, local businesses, and organizations the opportunity to help keep our town beautiful and thriving. By adopting a public area such as a park, street, or garden, you’ll play a vital role in maintaining a clean and welcoming environment for everyone to enjoy.
Participants commit to regular cleanups, light landscaping, or beautification efforts, and in return, we recognize your contributions with signage at your adopted spot and on our website and social media platforms.
Join us in fostering community pride and making a difference—one spot at a time! For more information or to get involved, contact Caitlin Posthumus at 973-292-6626, c-posthumus@townofmorristown.org.
Let’s work together to keep Morristown beautiful!
