The Don't Mess with Texas Trash-Off serves as Texas’ signature event for the Great American Cleanup, the nation's largest community improvement program, held annually from March 1 through May 31.

              

In 2012, 2,017 Don't Mess with Texas Trash-Off events were held across the state, featuring more than 87,000 volunteers. All told, 5,122 miles of highway were cleared of litter and debris, totaling over seven million pounds of trash!

The Don't Mess with Texas Trash-Off is part of the partnership between Keep Texas Beautiful and the Texas Department of Transportation. Participants can receive trash bags, volunteer giveaways, promotional items, and more.
