Recycle Central @ Pier 96

Beth Perry

Moved to SFO this week. Had a million cardboard boxes to dispose of. Seemed like it would take forever to recycle them at the curb, so I researched other options. Called for info - the lady on the phone was super nice and helpful. She gave me detailed instructions on how to find the drop off location - definitely a little tricky to find. Got lucky and the truck in front of me was dropping off cardboard as well, so I just followed him after I got on property. It's a bit of a hike from Russian Hill but worth it to get rid of all the boxes. Would definitely do it again.

Been an off and on customer for 3 years. It's quite a distance, but the employees have always been pretty hospitable and accommodating. Just remember to bring your ID. It's a pretty hard sell to get anything back if you don't.

GPS: Pier 96 - Buyback for aluminum and plastic close at 3:30 sharp - FYI cans are $1.80 per lbs not $2.80 --- I discovered this place a while back, love this place. Always feel safe when I'm driving pass by their driver with the bulldozer. Do yourself a favor and sort items out when you're collecting, cause if you did, it's a quick in and out. Bagged plastic bottle go on the weight, cans go to this machine. For those who want to sort items out on site, they provide bins for you to do so.
