Roll-Off Trucks

To get an understanding of the space we need to deliver and service a roll-off box, please take a look at the trucks. We need to be careful of overhead hazardous such as tree limbs and be sure we have clearance on both sides of the truck.

Construction and Demolition Recycling

Construction and Demolition (C&D) material accounts for 19% of our diversion on campus, the second highest contributor after paper. We are able to give discounts for source separated wood, paper, metal, and green waste. Although we do not offer discounts, source separated concrete, dirt, drywall, can be recycled as well. For rate information, please call the office at (650) 321-4236.

Here is a list of what is acceptable and is not acceptable in mixed C&D loads that are sent to a C&D recycling facility: C&D Recycling Requirements (pdf file).
