EZPik Donates 300+ Cleanup Tools for Coastal Cleanup Day

When volunteers gather on beaches this September 19 for International Coastal Cleanup Day, hundreds will have new tools making it easier to grab what doesn't belong there.

EZPik is donating over 300 grabber tools to environmental organizations in New York, California, and Florida. The company partnered with Heal the Bay, 5 Gyres, Keep Collier Beautiful, and Pacific Beach Coalition to equip volunteers cleaning beaches, waterways, and surrounding communities.

The timing matters, but so does what happens after the spotlight fades. While Coastal Cleanup Day draws global attention each September, these four organizations work year-round removing litter and plastic pollution through community action, education, and research.

"The pickers are essential for hard to reach areas, like between levee boulders and in creeks," said Greg Finklestein from Pacific Beach Coalition. Those tight spaces where trash gets wedged are exactly where volunteers need an extra three feet of reach.

For EZPik, the move extends what their products already do: make picking up what's been left behind easier. Their flagship Pro Reacher Grabber Tool is the top seller in its Amazon category, trusted by more than 500,000 customers with a 4.4 star rating across 26,000 reviews.

"EZPik was created around a simple idea: to make life easier for people," said Cara Wallach, the company's Brand Manager. "It means even more to put that idea directly into the hands of the volunteers and organizations already showing up to do this work."

The Ripple Effect

These 300 grabbers represent more than cleanup day supplies. By equipping the people already committed to protecting coastlines, EZPik is reducing the barrier between wanting to help and actually helping.

The partnership extends beyond this single event. EZPik is building longer term relationships with these organizations, meaning future cleanup efforts throughout the year will have the practical tools volunteers need to collect debris from places hands alone can't reach.

Each grabber multiplies one person's ability to make a difference, turning good intentions into bags of collected waste that won't end up in the ocean.
