No, you can't force volunteers to do anything, any more than you can
force employees to do anything.  But volunteers generally *do* have
obligations, and if they don't take care of their obligations, they're
removed from being a volunteer.

I don't know of any volunteer janitors.  There are various groups who
volunteer to do cleanup projects, though, and people are generally
assigned shifts and duties.  A volunteer cleanup project generally
wouldn't just hand out mops and say "go clean stuff up".
