Earth Day Garbage Truck Coloring Pages – Recycling Activities

The Garbage Truck Coloring Pages offer kids a fun and educational way to learn about important community helpers—garbage collectors and their trucks! These pages are designed for children in Kindergarten (K) through 5th Grade and are ideal for Elementary School students. Whether you’re in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, or Australia, these coloring pages make learning fun and interactive. Each page features a unique garbage truck—some large, some small—all ready to be filled with color! Kindergarten and 1st Grade students will love exploring colors and shapes, while 2nd Grade, 3rd Grade, 4th Grade, and 5th Grade students can get more creative by adding recycling bins, trash cans, or helpers at work. Garbage trucks are often green or blue, but kids are encouraged to use any colors they like—even rainbow garbage trucks are welcome! This activity supports creativity, color recognition, and fine motor skills while also sparking conversations about recycling and waste management. With just a few coloring tools, these pages turn into mini works of art that kids will be proud to share. Let’s celebrate the heroes who help keep our neighborhoods clean—with creativity and color!
