Registrations Now Open for The Great Spring Clean Up

Clean Up Australia

Encouraging Healthier Cities, Healthier People and a Healthier Planet 

 

The Great Spring Clean Up is back in 2025, with Clean Up Australia calling for registrations which have opened today.

 

This is another opportunity for the community to come together to take action for the environment after Clean Up Australia Day, which is Australia’s largest day of environmental action and takes place on the first Sunday in March annually. 

 

As the weather warms up during September and October, The Great Spring Clean Up in partnership with, Bupa is a great way for all Australians to take on a Spring Clean Up and play a part in helping to tackle litter in our streets, parks and waterways, to encourage healthier cities, healthier people and a healthier planet.                                                                                                                                                

Pip Kiernan, Chair of Clean Up Australia said: “We are helping our volunteers, community allies, local councils and schools organise Clean Ups in every part of the country. Spring is synonymous with heading outdoors to enjoy the warmer weather, but it is also right before severe weather season kicks in around our country. This makes it a vital time to try and remove as much litter as we can from our waterways and environment.”

 

Roger Sharp, Chief Sustainability & Corporate Affairs Officer at Bupa Asia Pacific said: “As a healthcare company, we know that the environment has a significant impact on the health of people. Through our partnership with Clean Up Australia, we’re taking action together to clean up our public spaces and encourage active volunteering, so people have the best chance of living healthier lives.”

 

The Great Spring Clean Up is open to all, and the perfect opportunity to come together with family, friends, schools, the local community or work colleagues and do your bit to help Clean Up the environment. Volunteers will receive a free Clean Up kit, containing gloves, bags and other resources, with packs for individuals, families and community groups available (businesses are asked to pay a small fee to cover costs). 

 

If you are unable to participate, donations to Clean Up Australia are welcome, with 100% of funds raised going directly to empowering Australians to take positive action for the environment and providing free Clean Up kits.

 

Registrations are now open at cleanup.org.au
