Green Up Vermont | May 4, 2024

 
OFFICIAL
GREEN UP DAY
PICK UP/DROP OFF
LOCATION
 

Join us on Saturday, May 4, 2024

As part of Subaru of New England, an official sponsor of the event, 802 Subaru is Central Vermont's dedicated bag pick-up and trash drop-off location!

We will be outside of 802 Subaru handing out bags, swag, and collecting trash between 9:00 AM and 5:00 PM. You can continue to drop-off your filled bags after we have left. 

We will have donuts for those stopping by early as well as hosting a BBQ for lunch. Please grab some food between 8:00 AM to 1:00PM. 

Our goal is 500 bags and a full dumpster at the end of the day. Please help us help the environment and Green Up Vermont with 802 Subaru!

This year we are attempting to hit a Guinness Book of World Records by the number of people pledging to clean up trash in a 24 hour window. Please help us hit that goal by pledging in our dealership or by printing out this form and emailing it to marketing@802cars.com or dropping it off at our dealership by Friday May 3rd. 

We hope to see YOU (and your friends and family) for Green Up Day 2024!

Be safe on Green Up Day


  • Tie your trash bag closed when full - keep your good work in the bag!
  • Wear long pants and boot and always check your body for ticks.
  • If you see a needle or sharp material - find an adult and do not put it in   your bag with the other trash. Put it in a thick plastic container, clearly mark "DO NOT RECYCLE" and duct tape the lid on, then put it into the regular trash. Visit www.healthvermont.gov for further information.
  • Road Caution - Always work facing oncoming traffic.
  • Follow State Covid-19 guidelines.
  • Wear gloves.
  • Report your trash pick up stats to your town coordinator.
