Keeping the City of Bennettsville Clean

Our Mission

We are committed to creating a cleaner, safer, and more beautiful Bennettsville. Through thoughtful planning, daily maintenance, and sustainable practices, our team helps protect the environment while improving the quality of life for residents, businesses, and visitors. At the heart of our city's cleanliness is the dedicated Sanitation Division. This essential team is responsible for the collection and proper disposal of solid waste within the City Limits. Here's how they make it happen:

Solid Waste Collection Team

Our diligent Solid Waste Collection Team follows a set schedule, venturing into neighborhoods every assigned day of the week. Their mission? To ensure that your household waste, recyclables, and yard trash are efficiently collected and disposed of. From household garbage to recyclable materials and yard waste, the Sanitation Division is committed to maintaining a clean and healthy environment for our community. Together, we contribute to a cleaner, greener City of Bennettsville. 

The Solid Waste Collection team is responsible for:

• Weekly residential garbage collection across all neighborhoods
• Bulk waste and debris pickup to assist residents with larger disposal needs
• Safe handling and transport of waste to approved disposal facilities
• Support for community cleanups and special waste collection initiatives
• Customer service and coordination to address citizen concerns and ensure smooth operations

Beautification and Recycling

A well-maintained city reflects community pride, attracts investment, and creates a welcoming environment for everyone. The Beautification & Recycling Team embodies Bennettsville’s spirit of progress and serves as a key partner in our ongoing efforts to make the city shine. We believe beautification is a shared responsibility. Our team proudly collaborates with citizens, neighborhood groups, schools, and local organizations to expand recycling awareness, encourage responsible waste disposal, and inspire community ownership. When we work together, Bennettsville becomes an even better place to live, work, and visit. Our team is responsible for a wide range of services that directly impact the look and feel of our city, including:

• Litter and debris removal along streets, sidewalks, parks, and public spaces
• Recycling collection and processing to promote waste reduction and sustainability
• Seasonal landscaping and beautification projects, including planting, pruning, and maintenance of city-owned greenery
• Support for community clean-up initiatives, volunteer programs, and special events
• Maintenance of public rights-of-way and beautification zones throughout Bennettsville
