Burning Woman is a "Leave No Trace" event. You must remove everything you bring with you at the end of the celebration.

There are no sanitation services of any kind and you must remove all waste from the site. Due to the extreme arid nature of the environment, human biological waste takes an extraordinary long time to decompose. We believe that our passing through this beautiful setting should leave absolutely no impact on the environment. Thus we ask that each group provide their own vessel for removing all biological waste. i.e. portable toilets or field toilets are the price of admission.

Glass containers of any kind are not allowed. Please use plastic or metal containers.

Burn scars are not allowed. Even the smallest camp fire will damage and kill the living earth. If you plan on having a fire or burning a piece of art, you must prevent any possibility of burn scars. Please contact us if you need help with information on burn scar prevention.
