Keep Florence Beautiful

Do you know South Carolina's litter laws? 🚨

Littering isn't just harmful to our roadsides and communities—it's against the law. In 2018, the South Carolina General Assembly passed Act 214, giving magistrates and municipal courts greater flexibility to prosecute litter violations and hold offenders accountable.

The message is simple: Littering will cost you, because it costs everyone.

As June comes to a close, law enforcement agencies across South Carolina are continuing to increase enforcement of litter, illegal dumping, and unsecured load laws. Make the right choice: secure your load, dispose of waste properly, and help keep South Carolina beautiful.

🚯 Don't risk it. Don't litter.
