Roxby resident Steve Moss has been coordinating Clean Up Australia Day in Roxby Downs since 2005 and said the success is due to community involvement.
“I register us and find a few sponsors,” he said.
BSH waste solutions is also asked to supply the bins.
“The town does it, I’m just the fat controller standing there directing traffic.”
A lot has changed over the years since Mr Moss first coordinated Clean Up Australia Day.
“When I first came to town in 2004 I was surprised at how untidy the town was, there was a lot of rubbish around, the dump was a mess, there was rubbish all the way down the highway to the airport,” he said.
