SF DUMP TOUR

We scheduled a special add-on tour of The San Francisco Dump for registrants of Compostmodern. Learn about San Francisco ‘s 3-Cart Recycling Program which makes it far easier and more convenient for residents and businesses to recycle.

Making recycling easier results in a dramatic increase in material recovery and allows San Francisco to surpass California’s 50 percent recycling law, AB939. In fact, their innovative programs helped San Francisco reach a 67% garbage diversion rate in 2004. 

The tour is open to all Compostmodern attendees on a first-come, first-served and limited basis.

Please note: Wear closed-toed sturdy shoes (no sandals or heels). It’s best to wear old boots.
