The University of Connecticut and the Town of Mansfield are teaming up for a community cleanup day on Saturday, Nov. 16.

UConn students and town residents are all encouraged to take part in this “Don’t Mess With Mansfield” event.

The event for UConn students will take place from noon to 4 p.m. at these check-in stations. Litter pickup supplies will be provided at these stations. Litter can be picked up in the core of the UConn Storrs campus, Hunting Lodge Road, Separatist Road, Hillyndale Road, North Eagleville Road, Eastwood Road, and Westwood Road.

Upon completion of collecting litter, the bags should be brought to the original check-in station and will be collected by UConn Facilities Operations.

Mansfield residents are encouraged to pick up litter anytime that day in any area they feel safe collecting at the roadside. The roads include Pleasant Valley Road, Mansfield City Road, White Oak Road, and Gurleyville Road.

Bags of litter may be placed out with household trash for those with collection service or taken to the Mansfield Transfer Station for no charge. The Transfer Station is located at 221 Warrenville Rd. The Transfer Station is open Tuesdays and Thursdays from 8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. and Saturdays, 8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.

Mansfield residents may also consider making a commitment to pick up litter on a section of road throughout the year by joining Adopt A Road.
