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.
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!

Join Don't Trash Dover for the Second Annual Power-of-an-Hour City-Wide Litter Clean Up in honor of Earth Day on Saturday, April 26, 2025 from 9:30 to 10:30 a.m.
The City of Dover requests new volunteers to complete a Volunteer Service Agreement. If you've already filled one out for a previous Don't Trash Dover event, you don't need to complete a new one.
