Food Waste

Allied Waste now has a program for recycling food waste (leftovers). It gets composted into rich soil that is used for landscaping in San Mateo County and beyond. If your department has a lot of food waste, you may be a good candidate for the food waste recycling program, which can reduce your garbage level significantly.

Hillcrest Juvenile Hall, Maguire Jail, the VRS Cafe and the San Mateo Medical Center have implemented food waste recycling programs with the help of RecycleWorks staff. Your kitchen staff will be fully trained on how the program works and given the necessary bins and signs to make your program a success . To get more information contact RecycleWorks.recycle icon
