What began with one bucket, a trash grabber and a friend quickly turned into a mission to provide tools for others to help. The Blue Bucket Project has provided over 500 litter pick up starter kits. You can help make our communities better places. Start by contacting us!

Who We Are

We are a community funded, community engaging project.

Our mission: To increase individual or family engagement and motivation to keep our community litter free by providing equipment, resources and opportunity.

What We Do

Not only do we give out kits, we help pick up litter! We each have our own neighborhoods plus we organize Flash Trash Mobs for a quick intensive 60 min pick ups in areas that need extra help!

Collaborations

Working together. The Blue Bucket Project works with groups doing team building or service projects. Our capacity is for smaller groups while our friends at Keep Omaha Beautiful and Omaha Parks VIP are able to work with larger groups of 30 or more volunteers. Need more info?

Flash Trash Mobs

A Flash Trash Mob (FTM) is a group of people who gather at a specific time & place to do 60 minutes of intense yet fun litter gathering. Anyone can attend. Supplies are provided or

you can bring your own. FTMs are often at highly used intersections or areas of need. We schedule mini-mobs.
