Community events can generate a significant amount of waste. Please plan ahead to minimize the amount of waste created and ensure that any recyclables and compostables can be recovered and are not sent to the landfill.

Our Waste Prevention Guide for Community Events lists action items for prior, during, and after the event. The Guide is best suited for large events where foods and other goods are provided or sold, but many of the action items are appropriate for smaller events as well.

Please be sure to request waste collection services several weeks before your event. We typically require 30 days notice for small events and 90 days for larger events. Fees may apply. Be sure to let us know if there are sponsorship opportunities. 

If you are interested in having South San Francisco Scavenger participate in your event or would like to request an educational table, presentation, or community outreach activity, please complete the Event/Table Request Form below. Our team will review your request and contact you with availability and additional details.
