Frequently Asked Questions

What is Big Blue Ocean Cleanup?

Big Blue Ocean Cleanup is a quiet, global field of ocean protection. We provide tools, support, and presence for those called to care for the sea.

How can I get involved?

If you feel called to clean a beach, a river, or a trail — we can provide tools. If you want to support quietly, donations are welcome. No campaigns. No roles. Just presence.

Is Big Blue Ocean Cleanup a non-profit?

Yes. We’re a Community Interest Company. All resources go back into the work — not into profit or performance.

Where do you work?

Wherever people are ready. We don’t operate from offices — we move through alignment.

How are donations used?

To supply gear, hold cleanups, and share ocean awareness — without hype, noise, or bureaucracy.

Can businesses support Big Blue Ocean Cleanup?

Only if it’s true. We don’t do sponsorships. But if your team or company wants to contribute without agenda, we’re open to that.

Can I host my own cleanup?

Yes. You don’t need permission. We offer gear if you need it. The field will guide you.

What kind of research do you do?

We quietly track microplastics and document what the ocean reveals. Not for reports — but for clarity.

Do you offer educational resources?

Yes. Free, open, and simple — for schools, families, or anyone listening.

How do I get cleanup equipment?

Just fill out the short request form at www.bigblueoceancleanup.org/equipment-application.

How does plastic offsetting work?

We offer rough estimates based on the volume of our reusable sacks. It’s not exact — and that’s okay. We’re not here to calculate our worth.
