Garbage Information

Residential Garbage Collection Service
  • All garbage and recycling containers must be left at the curb by 6:00am on your service day.
  • We are not responsible for any articles left on or near collection containers.
  • Please report any missed collections to our office by the following business day. An answering service is available after regular business hours to accept all calls, or you can use our online contact form.
  • Please put your garbage in bags before placing in your container, to help prevent loose trash from falling out on windy days or when the container is emptied.
  • Extra Garbage must be bagged and arrangements made with our office in advance for pickup.
  • For your convenience, Extra Bag Tags are also available and allow you to put out extra garbage on your regular service day without having to call ahead. To purchase Extra Bag Tags call a San Bruno Garbage Company Customer Service Representative at (650) 583-8536, or the City of San Bruno Utility Billing Division at (650) 616-7086.
  • Household Hazardous Materials, such as paint, batteries, fluorescent light bulbs, motor oil and CRTs are prohibited from being disposed of in the garbage. For disposal and recycling information for these and other hazardous wastes, please visit our Household Hazardous Waste page.
