March Trashness 2026

This March, embrace the competitive spirit of March by joining our Adopt-the-Block March Trashness Challenge!

We're challenging our community to a friendly but fierce competition to see who can net the most trash by the end of the month. Lace up, grab your picker, and let’s see who cuts down the nets this year.

Earn Points

Here’s how scoring works:
🏀 2 points → One full bag of trash
🏀 3 points → Anything bigger than a kitchen bag
🏀 1 point → Any other large item
