Answer 1

Contact your local highschool and get in touch with the civics teachers. They should have this sort of thing all worked out, as in the freshmen class needs to perform so many hours of community service...they should steer you in the right direction.

Answer 2

pay 5.25 an hour.

Answer 3

Find out if your neighborhood has a meeting to discuss neighborhood issues.  You can present this idea during the meeting and meet the people who are in charge of your area.  You will encounter questions like "Do I have to supply bags?,  Who will pick up or haul the trash away?,  Do I have to pay for the pick up/haul away service? etc."

I would not recommend going door to door unless you are familiar and comfortable with all your neighbors.
