Summarize this article:

One of the handiest tools for the trash removal is a pick-up stick. It is designed so you can grab the trash without bending down or touching it with your hands. Some sticks have a lever to open and close a clamp that grabs the trash, while others have sharp metal parts that pierce the trash and lift it off of the ground. Look online to find the best pick up stick that meets your litter cleanup needs. Safety vests come in bright fluorescent colors, such as yellow, green, or orange. Vests with reflective strips increase your visibility and help you stand out against your surroundings. It is very important that you wear this clothing at all times when collecting litter near roadways. The bright and reflective colors will alert motorists that people are working nearby. When picking up trash, you're going to need something to put it all in. You may come across garbage or recycling bins, but in the event that you don't you'll need to carry multiple heavy-duty trash bags with you during your pickup. Purchase a bag handle or holder online that will make carrying multiple bags more convenient. When picking up litter, it is recommended that you wear thick, gardening gloves. If you come across something that your pick-up stick is unable to grab, you may need to pick it up with your hands. Gardening gloves will protect your hands from germs and bacteria or anything sharp.

Summary:
Use a litter pick-up stick to pick up trash from the ground. Wear a reflective safety vest near roadways to increase your visibility. Carry multiple trash bags to collect and sort all of the litter. Wear sturdy gloves to protect your hands.
