By the Inside Outreach team · September 16, 2025Aloha ʻohana. Starting today, every Tuesday is Trash Tuesday.
Here’s the idea. If you see one of our Trash Tuesday posts, that’s your reminder. Grab a bag. Wherever you are, pick up some trash.
At the beach. At the park. Walking your dog. On your lunch break at work. It doesn’t have to be a big organized thing. Ten minutes is plenty.

Why it matters
Trash on the road ends up in the storm drain. The storm drain empties into the stream. The stream runs to the ocean. Trash in the ocean means trash in our food. Trash on our plates. We don’t want that.
“If you are a resident of Hawaiʻi, please lead by example and dispose of all of your trash where it should go.”
Lucy, Inside Outreach
Visiting?
If you’re visiting the islands, welcome. We love having you. Just a friendly reminder. Whatever you take to the beach, take it back with you when you leave.
See our banner?
Sometimes we’re out there too. If you spot the Inside Outreach banner, come find us. We’ll hand you gloves and a bag.
But really, you don’t need us. Just a bag and a little bit of aloha. See you next Tuesday.
