The campaign has now become an annual event. The most volunteers have turned out in the capital Sofia.
By Saturday evening, the participants have collected 12 metric tons of waste. For the first time this year the recyclable trash has been separated.
The campaign has also been massive in the cities of Plovdiv, Ruse, Veliko Tarnovo, and Varna, among many others.
