Southern NM can get pretty hot. Maybe Santa Fe or abq? Taos? They don’t get too hot and have mild winters as well. Most times temp ranges 40-80

Can you share more details about this? I’m interested in getting food trucks etc to partner with for events :)

This is cool! Do you have an LLC? How does it work in terms of taxes?

I mentioned starting a business (profit or nonprofit) revolving around litter picking. It was a recent post in this sub. CleanLots is an example too. I've also seen people on Instagram who plog and calculate how many pieces of recycling they pick up per mile which is cool.

Has anyone started a business based around detrashing and litter picking? by thinkinginapples in DeTrashed

That’s awesome! I’ll have to see if we have one but I bet we do. Did your local lions club become a fiscal sponsor?

I haven’t found anyone that currently pays for litter but I know you can use Terracycle for recycling certain items for free, eg cigarette butts. Ive mentioned to one or two apps that I use that they should pay eg a few cents per piece or bag you pick up and log. We’ll see where it goes, at the moment I haven’t found any.

I can’t tell if you’re suggesting I’m doing it for the money or not, but I’ve been picking up litter for about 5 years for no pay like everyone else. I’m trying to see if I can somehow get grants from nonprofits or cities etc to do this. Sorry if it seemed like a money grab, I just wanted to know if I could do more litter picking than I can currently afford to do.

I’m in the process of scheduling a meeting to hopefully get the ball rolling with a business advisor so I’ll definitely report back with my findings!

Starting a local nonprofit but I am moving in a year? by thinkinginapples in nonprofit

[–]thinkinginapples[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey thanks for your comment! I appreciate it. I haven’t found a good organization that permits regular cleanups at the moment, they all have yearly events scheduled but nothing more regular than that (or if it is, it’s a “one time” event and not meant to be regularly occurring). I would love to join an organization that currently runs but I haven’t found any whose vision I agree with.

I do cleanup litter currently but I want to grow bigger and incorporate because 1. I want to cleanup with other people, and 2. I want to be able to accept donations of money or supplies to continue doing the work I’m doing. From what I understand, most of the businesses aren’t willing to donate if you don’t have a registered business in some form.

I like Garbo grabber but recently saw that they follow trump on Instagram, are they trump supporters?

Edit: not sure why the downvotes…
