On February 3rd, 2010, Ganz added a new feature to Webkinz World. For the first time, trash started showing up on the ground in the Kinzville Park, and Webkinz players were asked to pick up the trash and place it in trash recyclers. Correctly recycled items earn players points toward fantastic prizes.

Be sure to put food on the compost side and paper/tin on the recycle side (if you put it in the wrong side, points will be subtracted from your "Green Ranking"). After completely emptying, the bag will disappear from the screen until you find another piece of trash.

On February 4th, Ganz released the following "hint" for finding trash: The more people in a park, the more garbage that will be created. It appears that one piece of trash shows up for each pet in the park.

It didn't take long for theories on how to find the park trash to start emerging. One of the main theories was that the timing of the appearance of the trash was '''similar''' to that of the floating objects in click-to-win events.

On February 5th Ganz "tweeted" the following statement, "Hey everyone. We've heard you about Clean Up the Park. We're working on getting the garbage to appear more. Won't be until next week though."

On the first two days of the new feature, members tracking the trash found that it was "reappearing" in the park on a six minute schedule. On the third day the timing seemed to change to about every five minutes.<ref>http://www.webkinzinsider.com/forum/f-166/second-post-update-include-my-page-598295/index78.html#post18194765</ref>
