A CLEAN COMMUNITY IS EASY!

 

Making your community a more beautiful place to live, work, and play is easy.  If you have a group ready to clean a specific area (or are an individual who just wants to make a difference) KAB can help you plan your cleanup. We will provide everything you need for your day, such as trash bags, gloves, pick up tools, and even sunblock and poison ivy scrub!

HOW TO ORGANIZE A CLEANUP:

The process is easy. First, plan your date and location, and round up your volunteers! Next, complete the supply request form below to get your materials. Please give us at least two weeks notice to prepare your materials and arrange for trash pickup if needed. Afterwards, you'll complete the report at the bottom of your supply request form to let us know how you did!

CLICK HERE to request your cleanup supplies and get your cleanup underway!  

Cleanup forms must be received by Keep Austin Beautiful at least 2 weeks before your cleanup date in order for KAB to provide supplies and arrange for collection of the full trash bags. (Note: Once you have submitted your cleanup request form you will receive an auto-reply message including a link to your form. Save this email as you will need this link to complete your cleanup report after your cleanup. KAB will contact you closer to your cleanup date to let you know when supplies are ready for pick-up.)

Volunteer's Experience

“We all had a really nice time and left feeling as though we had contributed to a good, green cause.  Also, it was amazing how appreciative people were of all our efforts (I personally had five people stop to say "thanks"). “  ~  Naomi – 1st time cleanup leader, June 2008 cleanup of Barton Creek’s Spyglass Trail Entrance
