just casualy drop into conversation that at the end of your trip if they help you with your litter picking you will help them.

its very difficult when you dont want to upset the apple cart, that would be even more to pick up

even my kids know we always litter sweep the pitch last thing before we leave.

They also have to do it at scout camp too!!

I would say something like, "Hey guys, I've started a fresh bin bag and collected my rubbish, who wants it next?  After all we found it tidy here, let's leave it so"

If there are any kiddies in the party I'd offer a reward for the fastest litter picker and make a game of it, whilst the adults are doing the main packing up.  Or when you next camp with them, I'd get a discussion going on the last night about who's doing what in the morning so you can all help each other get packed and include litter removal as part of the assigned list of tasks.

Bossy-boots, me!!
