The Guam International Coastal Cleanup has become a landmark event in our island community for decades, drawing participants from local organizations, schools, businesses, and individuals who share a passion for environmental conservation and stewardship.
The Guam International Coastal Cleanup is organized and led by the Guam Coastal Management Program with generous Site Leader Volunteers who organize and manage each of the cleanup site locations. In cooperation with the Guam Department of Education (GDOE), students can earn valuable service-learning hours for participating.
The 21cleanup site locations are found in the registration form with a show time of 6:00 am to 7:00 am for most sites.

Registered volunteers will receive gloves, trash bags, and a free Coastal Cleanup T-shirt at check-in (while supplies last).
Minors registered under a group must be accompanied by their registered chaperones to participate and receive supplies. Please wear appropriate clothing for outdoors, sunblock, and bring your refillable water bottle.
In order to improve the volunteer experience, we are requiring all volunteers to pre-register for the event through the guamtime.net website. There is NO on-site registration on the day of the event. The number of tickets for each site will be capped based on the severity of trash in the area and the number of volunteers needed for each site.
