Caltrans
Don't Trash California
The Challenge
Move Caltrans towards compliance for the trash total maximum
daily load (TMDL) waste allocations in the Ballona Creek and LA
River watersheds as directed by the LA Water Board, the State
Water Board and Cal EPA
The Solution
Media Solutions created and negotiated an integrated Radio,
Outdoor, and Corporate partnership promotion to increase
awareness of the “Don’t Trash California” campaign and encourage
public to stop littering
Through a partnership with Conoco Phillips gas stations, messaging was placed at times and places where people were:
- more likely to litter/in the process of littering
- more receptive to a littering message
- able to take immediate action (place litter in a trash bin or keep hold of)
Linked to this partnership was a promotion encouraging public to
come into a local gas station to get a branded trash bag and in
turn would go into the draw to win a new Ford Mustang
The Results
Added value exceeded 48% or $776,000+
Increased key measures on public opinion poll
