Must Read

Assume that you will be picking up litter for about 2 hours.

What to bring:
  • Your own gloves (and any extras to share). Really, you will want gloves. You can pick up gardening gloves at the Dollar Store in Fair Lawn but you can also just use your winter gloves.
  • Optional: claw/trash-pickers.
  • Filled reusable water bottle.
  • We recommend wearing long pants with socks pulled up
  • Rain boots or sneakers. Some areas may be muddy.

Where to go:
  • You were emailed your assigned site. Please get there by 9:30 AM.
  • You will meet your site leader there.
  • Please walk and bike when you can so we can save the earth :)

What to do:
  • Use gloves and be cautious while picking up trash.
  • If your kids are with you, warn them to not pick up needles (needles were NOT found last year, but you never know).
  • Deposit trash into black bags and separate recyclables (cans and plastic bottles into clear bags)
  • Remember: Dirty cardboard or paper is NOT recyclable.
  • Please supervise your children carefully.
  • Alert your site leader if you find anything of concern (syringes, etc)
  • Filled your trash and recycling bags? Bring them to your site leader!
  • Take a ton of pictures and post them to social media #GRCleanUp! We want to see what is out there.  Don't forget to take before and after pictures, especially with your whole group!
