Another idea, does anyone know of a place that will make trash bags with logos??

Scratch that - found one. WAY to expensive.

Go on. Litter. We dare you.

Now you're thinking...

I like the idea.

Can we get the roadway closest to either the home of Randy Rayburn or Adam Dread?

**StreetWK05** · 10-27-2009, 01:29 PM

I'm in

So should we do city or regional? If we do city the turn out may not be so great. But regional could have people driving a long way. Either one has its advantages and disadvantages.

David, maybe you could have some shirts made up for this and put them on the store, neon yellows, greens and pinks? Maybe we should come up with a catchy slogan for the shirts though.

I have to look but I think they require reflective gear. I will look into it more.

So where does the guy with the truck take the load?
Are all local collection places receptive to this or does the State mandate the locals take this stuff that is collected during these volunteer efforts?
I've done this type volunteer clean up in a national forest where we hauled truck and trailer loads out. The forest service coordinated to provide huge dumpsters for the disposal. We picked up everything from stoves, couches, toilets, you name it.

I'm pretty sure the DOT picks up the bags of trash.

Here you go. TDOT picks it up

Quote:

After each subsequent litter pickup event, please contact us so we can pick up the bags from the roadside. At this time, please also let us know how many bags your group picked up. You may either call your TDOT Adopt-A-Highway District Coordinator or electronically submit your report online by visiting Beautification Office - Tennessee Department of Transportation - Environmental Division and click on Online Volunteer Activity Report Form. It’s very important that you report to us. It allows us to keep up-to-date records of your activities and ensures that your group gets acknowledgement for its contributions.

This is the one time I would condone open carry. As blatantly as possible, since cars will be whizzing by and not notice otherwise.

Especially if it's near Rayburn's or Dread's homes. LOLOLOL
