It’s easy to be green when moving.
Whether packing it up or settling in, make your move as environmentally friendly as possible.
- Use what you already have as packing material. Use your clothing, sheets, and towels to protect fragile or delicate items.
- Go online. Check Craigslist, Freecycle, Facebook Marketplace, etc., to find or offer reusable moving supplies.
- Pass it on. Moving companies like U-Haul may offer or accept gently-used boxes for reuse at no charge.
- Find a green moving company. Search for eco-minded movers who use reusable and recyclable moving supplies.
- Rent reusable. To avoid excess moving waste, find a reusable packaging rental company such as Zippgo or Rentacrate.
California State Law (SB 1383) will help keep compostable materials out of landfills.
All San Leandro residents and businesses must have adequate organic waste collection services in place to recycle organic materials, including food scraps, food-soiled paper, and yard trimmings.
Implementation of this local law is through a partnership between the City of San Leandro, ACI, StopWaste, and the Alameda County Environmental Health Department.

- Keep it clean. Keep it loose. Make sure recyclable plastic, metal, and glass food containers are empty, dry, and loose (do not bag) before placing in the blue RECYCLABLES

You can use SPECIAL TOTE BAGS to transport recyclables from your home to the blue recyclables bin. Keep recyclables loose. Do not bag them. Recyclable items in bags are separated and disposed of as garbage at our sorting facility.
SERVICE REMINDER
Keep an Eye on the Size
Corrugated cardboard and paper boxes should be flattened, and large pieces cut to 3′ x 2′ or smaller.
Doing so:
- allows for more room in the container
- prevents overflow and litter
- assures the pieces will fit in the hoppers of the collection vehicles
