I'M NOT YOUR MAID....a familiar refrain from litter pickers everywhere, but since we're picking up after everyone maybe we should dress the part. Attend this litter cleanup dressed as maids and butlers. Solicitously offer to take someone's trash as well as pick up flicked butts and existing litter. They can also graciously offer personal portable ashtrays and information on the importance of litter prevention.
Idea for a fun litter clean up. LITTER BINGO. After a clean up, while sorting the trash from recyclables individuals or groups compete to complete a bingo card. Local merchants and businesses can provide prizes or coupons. A good way to get a lot of the community involved. The bingo card categories are not complete, but I just wanted to get the idea out there. Sharon, Museum of Litter

#LITTER Cleanup & Awareness Event: Lunchtime Trash Mob. Volunteers gather at a predetermined location and time and all don their green vests and begin picking up litter. This idea is from the Go Lloyd pedestrian committee. This could be sponsored by a local business with volunteers receiving goodies, coupons or a drawing for a gift card.

@TheSaltNPepa tell people to push it. Real good. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pE0_GaLsX1Y At your next cleanup carry a small push lid garbage can while playing Push It. Show people how easy it is to Push It and throw trash away. Baby Baby. You can do it. Salt N Pepa's song would make a much better litter prevention PSA than a Geico ad.
Can Can Girls ruffle their petticoats & kick up a storm at this cleanup EVENT and *can* the #litter. At an intersection, parking lot or city street, they are sure to get attention for your litter prevention efforts. The can can have the message: We CAN eliminate litter. #WeCAN.

FLAG DAY Litter Clean up Event Idea for beach or park: "Flag" the #litter. Use these mini flags (then remove at the end of the day, of course, to recycle for next year).You could have a booth with litter picking equipment, litter-prevention info and hand out personal, portable ashtrays. For other patriotic holidays use the flags to promote: "Love America? Keep it Beautiful." Other countries could do something similar with their flag.

Great idea for litter cleanup event. A bunch of people could dress up as butts and gather at a traffic light, park, beach or even walk through a city street.. While others are picking up the litter the The butt people could hand out personal portable ashtrays or information about the toxic nature of cigarette butts and the damage they do to the environment.
