Does litter really bug you? Because true Austinites Don't Mess with Texas.love

Local Adopt-a-Street or Adopt-a-Highway programs are committed to keeping roadways litter-free by organizing frequent clean-ups. Here's how to get involved.

Adopt-a-Street partners are given cleaning supplies and guidance from Keep Austin Beautiful. To apply, groups must:

Adopt a segment of at least half a mile within Austin city limits for two years.
Organize at least four clean-ups per year and submit reports.
Pay an annual fee ranging from $100-$1,500, depending on the group's size.
Assemble a volunteer group, as individuals are not eligible to adopt a street.

Anyone, including individuals, can adopt a highway for free. Participants must:

Adopt a two-mile stretch of non-Interstate highway for at least two years.
Agree to pick up litter quarterly, or more in high-traffic areas.
