A short walk to remove visible litter from the block and nearby park; use when you have about 30 minutes and want to reduce local trash hazards and visual clutter.
Sidewalks, road gutters, and the small park edge near my house have scattered wrappers, cans, and cigarette butts and I have not collected any trash yet.
I hesitate because I am unsure which route to cover and I don't want to touch trash with bare hands; I also don't have an easy way to carry a bag and picker together.
After the walk, visible litter will be collected into sealed bags, high-traffic spots cleared, and small recyclables separated for disposal.

- • Disposable gloves — 2 pair
