Don't Trash Dover is a volunteer organization founded by Deborah Clough. Don't Trash Dover organizes a monthly, one-hour volunteer Litter Collection Walk.
Saturdays Litter Collection Walks
One Saturday of each month, volunteers gather at a specific location, departing for an hour-long trash hunt at 9:30 a.m. The crew returns to the same location at 10:30 a.m. for a group photo with the trash collected.
The City of Dover provides trash bags to collect public litter during these walks. Don't Trash Dover has a limited supply of litter collection tools available for use during these walks. Bring your own if you have one. Gloves are recommended. Let’s work together to help keep Dover green!
