Check Shulchan Aruch – Orach Chaim end of Siman 21 (se’if daled) where is specifically states that one should take that his tzitzis do not drag on the floor. The Mishna Berura se’if koton 18 explains this as bizuy mitzvah, and also notes that it risks them tearing and becoming posul. He recommends that one pick up their tzitzis and tuck them into a gartel. (Seems that the Chofetz Chaim either wore a gartel or even recommended it.)
