SAFETY TIPS FOR THOSE HOSTING GARAGE SALES
Do not host a sale on your own – always have a 2nd (or 3rd) person with you
Be sure your area is free of anything that could cause a person to trip or fall (garden hoses, oil, etc)
Be kid friendly and smart – breakable or dangerous items should be kept away from little hands
Know what prices you want for items so you are not caught off guard
Keep your cash on you or assign someone to man the sales box
Empty your cash box every now and then inside your home
Do not count your cash in front of others
Do not let ANYONE in your home that you do not know – for ANY reason
Keep your front door and back doors LOCKED
If you have a bad feeling about someone or something call 911 if you feel threatened in anyway
Do NOT give out personal information to those you do not know such as who might be home at what hours or information about your neighbors
Remember there can be people casing out homes during this time. Be smart, protect yourself, your home and your neighborhood
South City is a great community and we have amazing neighbors and it is sad we live in a time that we cannot trust everyone who comes our way. Always err on the side of caution. We have witnessed a large increase in scams and schemes locally, regionally and nationally. This is a good opportunity to discuss these issues with neighbors so everyone can keep a look out for unusual activity. Please also share the word about the upcoming Senior Scam Stopped Seminar FREE Sept 29 at the MSB More info CLICK HERE Extra points for neighbors who print out this flyer to give to those who stop by!

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
