Press release from the City of Millbrae:

June 7, 2020

Recently, people have started to throw their excess trash in City trash receptacles and on City property. We ask that people help keep our community clean and not throw their excess trash, old furniture or any hazardous materials in City trash cans or on City property.

If you have excess trash or need to clean-out your old stuff, South San Francisco Scavenger offers two free clean-ups per calendar year. It’s a great opportunity to get rid of a large bulky item and/or several bags of garbage.

Through their scheduled clean-up, they will come to your home and take away:

12 bags of garbage; or 6 bags of garbage and 1 large item like a sofa, mattress or appliance; or 2 large items.

For a successful clean-up, please follow these tips from SSF Scavenger:

• Call at least 24 hours in advance of your regularly scheduled collection day
• Let them know how many bags, boxes, and which bulky items, you will be putting out at the curb
• All garbage must be placed in bags or boxes, they will not pick up loose garbage
• All branches, wood pieces, and carpet rolls must be tied and no longer than 4 feet

To schedule a clean-up, please call SSF Scavenger at (650) 589-4020.
