Virginia Trail Cleanup
Adopt-a-Trail Program
Help us keep Virginia’s trails open, clean, and beautiful by joining our new Adopt-a-Trail Program! As an adopter, you’ll choose a trail to visit a few times a year to pick up trash, snap a few photos, and share your cleanup work in our VA Off-Road Facebook group.
It’s a simple way to make a big impact and show pride in your favorite off-road spots. Whether you’re solo or part of a crew, we’d love to have you involved.
We are part of the Extreme Terrian Clean Trail Project.
When you help us with clean up’s, you get this badge.
When you come along with us to help do a trail cleanup or a road cleanup, we will award you with this badge ar no cost to you.
This badge is FREE.
How the Program Works
Yes, you pick the trail that you want to participate in, visit the trail at least once a year, as you go through it, collect trash along the way. Once our are done, take a couple images of the trash and the group you rode with and post them on our Facebook Group. As you do, we will send you the trail Cleanup Badge at no cost to you.
No, the trail you select is among a group of others that will also help volunteer. Sometimes we can get people together to form a group, other times you would just go it with a buddy or two.
If you belong to a local club, you can signup for your club (Jeep club, Bronco Club, etc)
You can go whenever you want, we just ask that you let us know when you do and that you provide an image or two.
Ideally, if you are planning to wheel that particular trail, beon the lookout for trash and clean it as you go.
Nope, you don’t. Although we encourage people to become a member of the VAOffRoad.org, anyone with a typical four wheel drive system can ride along. Typical rigs can include Jeeps, Bronco’s, 4 Runners, Tacomas, Land Cruisers, Galdiators and Trucks with typical 4WD systems. We also encourage bikes to join us too.
We can provide some basics like trashbags and gloves if you need them and head out as a group, although most people provide their own.
Just collect trash on the trail, if you can post a photo of you doing that on the trail or the trash you’ve collected, post it on our Facebook group.
We will mail you the badge at no charge after you helped out.

A few images from our cleanups over the years. Generally, there are 5-10 of us that ride along at a time to clean up trash along the rides, then we take the trash to local dumps.
