The ECBC cleanup kit

If you help us clean up, we provide everything you need to do so smoothly! 

Here's what's included in this cleanup kit:

- a grabber
- gloves
- a bucket or Renewi waste bag
- the distinctive fluorescent red jacket 

Of course, if you have your own cleanup equipment, you may use it too, as cleanup kits are only available while stocks last. We ask you to return the grabbers and buckets after cleaning up. That way we can reuse them at subsequent Eneco Clean Beach Cup events.

We will distribute the cleanup kits per location based on the number of participants. So be sure to participate for free, so you are guaranteed a cleanup kit!
