Through a partnership with the Delaware Library System, Keep Delaware Beautiful has made available litter clean up kits available for check out at your local library.  Each litter kit contain everything needed for a pair to hold their own litter pick up: 2 safety vests, 2 litter grabbers, 2 trash bags and a cleaning wipe.

FOR THE CLEAN UP:
-Identify the spot you would like to clean
-Plan a good spot to start, stop and park safely
-Wear the included safety vest or bright shirt
-Walk against traffic where possible, keeping yourself visible to others
-NEVER touch or collect anything that seems dangerous
-Do not empty liquids out of closed containers – just throw in the trash bag.
-Do not try to sort recyclables from trash – usually it is too contaminated to be recycled

AFTER THE CLEAN UP:
-Use included wipe to wipe the grabber handle and tip, place wipe in trash bag
-Volunteers are responsible for disposing of the litter they collect. If you come across large, bulky items, such as tires or appliances, that you are unable to remove, email info@keepdelawarebeautiful.com
-Return safety vests and litter grabber to the cinch bag and return inside the library (please avoid the book return slot if possible)
-We encourage you to take before & after pictures and upload them at www.keepdelawarebeautiful.com/library. We like to give a shout out to our volunteers on social media and other media outlets. Include the number of bags collected and locations cleaned.
