Community Collection & Cleanup Drives in Gurgaon
Join us on the ground. From sorting dry waste to cleaning local markets, we are making Gurgaon cleaner, one neighborhood at a time.
A successful dry waste and clothes collection drive in action. We partner with communities across Gurgaon to gather items for reuse and recycling, diverting tons of waste from ending up in landfills.

About Community in Action: Collection & Cleanup Drives
Organizing a collection drive in your society is simpler than you might think. We handle the logistics of collecting and responsibly sending your dry waste to recycling partners, ensuring that hundreds of kilos of clothing and household items do not end up in our city's landfills.
Real change in Gurgaon starts with what we throw away. We do not just talk about sustainability, we show up to make it happen. Our collection drives are designed to remove the guesswork from responsible disposal. Whether it is diverting 1300kg of clothing from landfills or monitoring local markets like the Wednesday Market to distribute paper bags, we focus on practical, on-the-ground interventions.
How We Work Together
- Society Collection Drives: We partner with RWAs to set up collection points for dry waste and pre-loved clothes. We handle the sorting and transport, connecting your waste to verified recycling facilities.
- Marketplace Intervention: We regularly visit local markets to educate vendors and distribute eco-friendly alternatives like newspaper bags, aiming to replace single-use plastic at the source.
- Community Monitoring: We look for volunteers to join us for regular market checks and neighborhood cleanups. It is not about perfect eco-warriors, it is about regular people showing up.
If you are worried about the waste your society generates, or you have a bag of pre-loved clothes sitting in your cupboard, do not let it sit there. Reach out, host a drive, or join our next cleanup event. Mera kachra, meri zimmedari (My waste, my responsibility). Let us clean up Gurgaon together.
