Trash on the highway.
That’s Clark County’s welcome mat.
A county that looks neglected gets treated like is is worth less, by residents, visitors and by businesses deciding where to invest.
People care, but no one group owns the work.
State and local funding hasn’t kept up. Miles of Clark County highway have gone without a real cleanup process — not because nobody cares, but because nobody’s been covering the cost.
That shows. Every commuter, every visitor, every business scouting the area sees the same stretch of trash-lined shoulder. It’s not a small thing. It’s the first thing.

6X
Sponsorship includes six professional cleanups per year, spaced throughout the year (even winter!).
HOW YOU CAN HELP
WSDOT’s Adopt-a-Highway program makes it easy to take action.
It’s an established state program, not something new we’re asking you to trust. WSDOT’s Adopt-a-Highway program started way back in 1990, so it’s been running for over 35 years. Here’s how a sponsorship works:
Your 2-mile section.
Sponsor a specific stretch of highway, one direction. About 20 sections are available across Clark County.
Professional cleanup.
Cleanups aren’t volunteer-run. It’s handled by Layland Construction, a licensed, WSDOT-approved contractor.
Year-round cleanups.
Professional cleanups happen on a set schedule six times a year — even in when our weather isn’t cooperative.
WHAT YOU GET
A sign with your name on it, locked in on day one.
A highway sight with your company name and logo, in your sponsored section, is the guaranteed deliverable right now. We’re building more ways to recognize sponsors, and early sponsors go to the front of the line.
~$9,000 / year, 2-year min.
WHO’S ASKING YOU TO HELP
A program we found, not one we built.
We are a small group of Clark County residents who noticed the trash problem on our highways and decided to see what we could do about it. After speaking with the folks at East County Citizen’s Alliance, we learned about the WSDOT program and here we are, helping promote it.
Whether you’re interested in sponsorship or would like to help our team, feel free to reach out.
