In the 1920’s and 1930’s, SSFSC pioneered the transition from open dumps to the sanitary landfills of today. In the 1950’s and 1960’s we helped perfect the collection of refuse in watertight collection vehicles. In the 1970’s we started the first transfer station in northern California, with recovery of recyclables starting on opening day! In the 1980’s the firm was among the first to install prototype waste reduction and resource recovery technologies, including curbside collection of recyclable materials, motor oil and oil filters. Over the years, the waste and recycling industry has had to adapt because of increasingly stringent and complex environmental health standards put in place in order to protect and preserve the health and welfare of our communities. We have always focused on finding innovative and cost effective waste management practices for recycling and disposal and reducing greater amounts of refuse from the landfill.South San Francisco Scavenger Company is committed to providing solid waste management services of the highest quality delivered with pride and professionalism to all our customers, utilizing environmentally sensitive equipment that is safe, efficient, reliable and appropriate to the work we perform. In carrying out our mission, we intend to provide and maintain the best possible work environment for our employees, fully cooperate with all governing and regulating agencies, and do our part to help create a sense of partnership between our company and the communities we serve.
