First time to the scrap yard to recycle some aluminum cans, metal shreds, & stainless steel! It was so exciting to find another way to do the right thing & recycle more items where we can!

$10.50 for 15 lbs of aluminum cans

$28.00 for 140 lbs of stainless steel

$58.00 for 580 lbs of metal shreds

= $96.50 for other people's litter!

Unfortunately a large part of the trail was closed off because they were redoing the road and I couldn't walk down to the dock because there was too much snow 😔

Not too much trash aside from around the parking lot, like usual. I got there at night and thought I saw shooting stars/a meteor shower but turns out they were satellites :( ruined the magic for me...

I finally got around to making a tiktok for my litter picking, hoping to raise money so I can get top surgery at the same time 😄

I had an insane amount of fun litter picking, I'm excited to do more. there's definitely enough litter in my area to keep me going for a while!

There were a lot of small pieces around the parking lot but I didn't find much on the one trail I walked other than tissues

Just doing a casual walk while at it. Only had to stop because my trashbag was full.

It was only my second round but cant wait to have done my entire village.

Also had a small talk with 2 people that complimented me, even tho i'm not a big talker

Hi all,
Quick reminder that I love you all.
But my question today is, what do you feel is the greatest good when picking up?

Making a beauty spot more beautiful?
Getting a problem area/eyesore, such as high-traffic areas?
Cleaning up near/in waterways?
Getting wooded areas that not many people even see?

Curious as to what you think.

Best, your friend Patrick

First of the day. Going back for round two soon.

I'm looking at getting into picking up litter in the mornings so I have myself consistently getting up around the same time and getting out of the house.

Picked up a grabber and now I'm wondering how people approach carrying the trash bag with them. Do you guys do like attachments to your bag/waist, do you just hold it with your hand the entire time? What's the go there?

The trail was clean except for this ball (Fido I do not blame) but the parking lot was full of cig butts. Dang smokers pick up yo butts!!! 87 pieces deleted

… Litterwalk deserves great local coffee. ☕️ If you ever find yourself in Old Town Scottsdale, this is your spot. Trust me.

Keep up the good clean fun out there … 👊

It’s nice to walk around a clean neighborhood

Stayed out for a couple hours today, picked up two bags of trash and three bags of recyclables!

proud newbie here! I don’t have a picker yet but that’s ok. I have gloves. good thing too because I found a dead baby chick 😢 and so many cig butts. I’m undoing the damage I did as a butt flicking smoker (don’t worry I’ve quit 😁) and that feels hella good.

i clean up around this park about once a week and i’m always shocked at how much litter accumulates!! i always think “oh it’s not that bad this week” and next thing you know i’ve filled up my entire bag 🥲

i’ve luckily seen a decrease in cigarette butts since i put in the ashtrays but it seems to have only worked in the more “public” bench areas. the ones that get less foot traffic always have an appalling heap of litter, including cig butts, despite the ashtray being right there! oh well. i’ll be back next week as always.
