Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a deadline to report my data?2026-02-11T00:13:03+00:00

Yes, all cleanup data must be reported/entered within two weeks at the the end of the Clean-up Challenge.

Is there a deadline to sign-on?2026-02-11T00:15:01+00:00

Starts April 1 — sign on by May 1.

Teams that want to officially participate should complete the sign-on by the deadline posted on the website (typically 30 days after the Cleanup Challenge begins). We recommend signing up as early as possible so you have more time to promote your participation, plan events, and recruit volunteers.

Can litter be cleaned up by city staff in the course of their normal job duties (example: maintenance crews, Parks and Rec crews, etc.) be reported?2026-02-11T00:15:25+00:00

No, only activities that fall outside of normal job duties may count or those connected to volunteer events/activities.

Are there any requirements or restrictions around the kinds of events that qualify for the challenge?2026-02-11T00:17:24+00:00

Yes, there are some. The events should be any litter cleanup event that takes place outside at parks, in neighborhoods, along roadways/waterways, etc. Don’t forget that clean ups of Adopt-A-Spots can count too! Basically, if teams or volunteers are outside cleaning up trash and litter…that counts!
