Jim Steele (1/5 stars, a week ago): Being that we pay for this service it’d be nice if they could return the trashcan to the side walk and not in the middle of the driveway. It wasn’t on the driveway so why push it there? Can’t park when I get home pretty annoying.. seems harder to push it into the driveway vs leaving it on the sidewalk too makes no sense

Jennifer Munoz (5/5 stars, 7 years ago): The cleanest dump I've ever been too! Everything is neatly separated and recycled! I guess I was expecting something very different! My father and I used to go to an outdoor landfill! I was always so excited to go! Eww! Back to SF Recology! Go green! They have plants at the beginning and ending of the facility. I grabbed a small start of Aloe Vera to plant in my garden! The customer service is always good! I've been here at least 5 times and never waited in a long line. The men are always helpful. You get in and out! My favorite thing about this place is the creativity! I love to see the art! They have windmills on top of the hill. I posted a picture below. Can't wait to see what's next!

Ari Zlatin (1/5 stars, 2 months ago): Every night of the week these so called "people" raving their diesel engines while recklessly driving against the traffic on one-way streets of San Francesco. The4y are terrorizing multiple blocks of residents and making excessive noise by moving dumpsters starting at 2 am and all throughout the day. Their schedule is unpredictable and random. There are mostly handicapped and elderly low-income housing here. Poor residents are literally sleep deprived and waiting for help that never comes and pleading for quiet nights. People are suffering and heaving health issues because of torturous sleepless nights. Please someone put an end to noise at night. Show quoted text
