Street cleaning
We clean roads, pavements and council-owned land regularly to keep the New Forest a clean and pleasant place to live and work.
We set our mechanical sweeping and manual litter picking schedules based on local knowledge of the area, with the busiest areas being cleaned more frequently.
We are not responsible for street cleaning on:
- Private or unadopted roads
- Town or Parish council land
- Crown Land - this is the responsibility of the Forestry Commission
If you wish to report a litter problem, excluding the areas listed above, please report it to us online or by phoning customer services on 023 8028 5000
What you can to to help
You can help by:
- using a litter bin or taking your litter home
- putting your rubbish out no earlier than 6pm on the evening before your collection
- picking up after your dog
- organising a community tidy up
