Long Beach: Seaview Approach

What you can help with at this location:

General Beach Cleanup
Collecting trash on foot and carrying the bags off the beach to designated roadside collection points. For a better idea of what's involved, see our Frequently Asked Questions page.

Truck driving
Truck drivers drive (their own trucks) along the drivable portions of the beach and collect the full bags that have been left by the general cleanup crews. They also collect large debris. They transfer bags and debris to dumpsters. (Must have valid driver's license and proof of insurance.)
