San Jose garbage collection
for businesses
Regular San Jose garbage pickup ensures your commercial waste is removed and disposed of frequently to avoid dumpsters overflowing and problems emerging. Daily, weekly, and fortnightly San Jose waste collection is possible with our services. Fully licensed professionals remove your trash and transport it to an authorized disposal or recycling site.
Combine suitable sizes, types, and numbers of dumpsters and trash cans to store your commercial waste with an appropriate pickup frequency. This helps create cost-effective and efficient San Jose garbage collection for your business and avoids paying for half-full dumpster removals or bins overflowing with trash that attracts pests and produces bad smells.
Garbage collection is possible for businesses of any size and location across the city south of San Francisco. You can organize pickups at convenient times and days that work around your operations, such as outside of opening hours for hotels and restaurants, to minimize disruption to guests. All trash is removed and disposed of in line with relevant California laws.
San Jose recycling
The city of San Jose, CA is viewed as a waste management leader in the US with one of the highest landfill diversion rates of 74%, according to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). This covers household garbage though, and the actual recycling rate in San Jose is believed to be lower.
Businesses must focus on recycling in San Jose too. It’s sustainable and often cheaper to recycle rather than send garbage to landfill, while also helping comply with California’s mandatory recycling laws. This also includes Organics Waste Collection – SB 1383, which requires separate organic waste collection and recycling (disposal away from landfill).
At Business Waste, we prioritize recycling in San Jose. Dumpsters, garbage cans, and containers are available to separate waste streams. Paper, cardboard, glass, and plastics are recycled where possible. Fully licensed professionals take your trash to a materials recovery facility (MRF) for sorting and recycling.
Waste food will be sent to industrial composting sites for natural recycling or an anaerobic digestion facility to generate energy from waste. This avoids landfill and helps ensure your business complies with relevant laws in California.
