MWA Blog: Gather a Group and Clean Up Your Community

Gather a Group and Clean Up Your Community

Use Our Equipment & Make Clean Up Simpler, Safer and Less Messy

It’s time for spring cleaning, so while you’re at it, why don’t you grab a group of neighbors or colleagues and spruce up your neighborhood or local park? Metro Waste Authority offers free clean up supplies to those who want to pick up litter and make their community a little brighter. The group effort is a great way to meet new people and promote a sense of pride in your neighborhood. When an area is clean, people are less likely to litter.

Supplies Available
Safety vests, litter grabbers, garbage bags, leather gloves, and duffle bags for carrying the equipment are available free of charge.

Clean Up Locations
In the past, community groups have used the supplies to clean up neighborhoods,
playgrounds, creeks, walking trails, parks and events, but there are an infinite number of places in need of some TLC.

Reserve Equipment
Simply complete and return this form to request use of our clean up supplies. A deposit is required, but it will be fully refunded when items are returned clean and in useable condition.
