About the event
Join us for Love Where You Live Day
Mark your calendars! Love Where You Live Day is a monthly event that invites individuals and small groups to beautify the areas around their homes and neighborhoods.
On the second Saturday of each month, show some love for the world right outside your door, whether it’s in your front yard or along your neighborhood street. Pick up some litter, mow your yard, weed a garden bed, or rake some leaves – it’s up to you!
Please note that Keep Austin Beautiful is unable to verify volunteer hours for Love Where You Live Day events.

Frequently asked questions
How long is this event?
We encourage you to keep your community clean year-round, but our Love Where You Live Days run between 9 and 11 A.M. on the second Saturday of every month!
Can I register for multiple kits?
Keep Austin Beautiful will provide one free kit per participating household, while supplies last.
Where do we discard our trash after the cleanup?
We ask that volunteers take the bags home to their own personal trashcans, or drop off the trash at an approved location.
Can I send someone else to pick up my kit?
If someone else is picking up your cleanup kit, they will need to provide your first and last name at pickup.
Do we have to return the kits after?
Once you pick up your kit, it belongs to you. You can use these tools to continue doing Love Where You Live cleanups at any time!
How can I share photos?
We love seeing your photos! Share them with us on social media by using the hashtag #KeepAustinBeautiful: @KeepAustinBeautiful on Facebook and Instagram and @KAB_Austin on X and TikTok.
