SSF City Wide Garage Sale
SATURDAY SEPT 13th

The City of South San Francisco encourages residents to take part in the annual City Wide Garage Sale slated for Saturday September 13th. The goal is to reduce items in your home that are no longer needed and give them a new life with a new owner – a win win for everyone.

Items that do not sell can be donated to one of our local charities. Please see a list below and call them to confirm what items are accepted. If you have additional charities in mind, please share with us.

Any items that cannot be recycled can be disposed of by the South San Francisco Scavengers Company.  This information is listed below as well.

On Call Clean Up Program for single-family dwellings:

Every 12 months, residents of single-family dwellings can schedule two free clean-ups. It’s a great opportunity to get rid of a large bulky item and several bags of garbage. Once you schedule your clean up, we’ll come by on your regularly scheduled garbage collection day and pick up:

12 bags of garbage OR
6 bags of garbage and ONE large item-sofa, mattress, appliance, etc.

Please note that special handling fees will apply to televisions, computer monitors, and other electronics. Already used your two free clean ups? Click here to schedule a paid pickup.

Ready to start? Call us at 650.589.4020.

Clean Up Day Tips:

• Let us know how many bags of garbage and which bulky items you’ll be putting out at the curb.
• No loose garbage will be collected. Put in bags or boxes.
• All branches or carpet rolls must be tied and no longer than 4 feet.
• Please recycle yard waste and other recyclables on your collection day.
• Is your item still usable? Don’t toss it- donate it! Visit www.recycleworks.org or call 1.888.442.2666

For those who live in multi- family residents (condos, apts) can call the Scavengers for more information 650.589.4020.
