Official Guidelines
The record for the most plastic bottles collected in one or eight hours is based on the weight of the plastic bottles collected within the designated time period.
- Only containers made of plastic collected individually and by hand will be accepted (any plastic container that once contained a liquid beverage- i.e. water, soda, 2-liter, juice, Gatorade). We will NOT be collecting milk jugs or other plastic bottles made from the same type of plastic.
- All plastic bottles must be used and empty so that a genuine recycling process is taking place.
- The plastic bottles should be collected within a specified area or location.
- There is no limit to the number of people involved in the collecting process.
- Once all plastic bottles have been collected they must be taken to a scale that has been previously certified and assessed as being adequate for the standards of the record.
- Two independent witnesses must be present to verify the guidelines were followed and the final total weight of the plastic bottles collected.
