Recology San Francisco: From Rubbish Rookies to Recycling Renegades - How to Sign Up and Save the Planet (Maybe)
Living in San Francisco? Then you're probably well acquainted with the finer things in life: sourdough bread that costs more than your rent, fog so thick you need a seeing-eye poodle, and, of course, the majesty of GARBAGE DAY. But fear not, fellow San Franciscan, because today we're here to conquer that last one. We're diving headfirst into the thrilling world of Recology sign-up.
Why Sign Up? Because Adulting, That's Why
Let's face it, the whole "adulting" thing isn't all avocado toast and brunch mimosas. It also involves the not-so-glamorous task of dealing with your...waste products. But hey, at least with Recology, you can do your part for the environment (or at least pretend to) with their recycling and composting programs. Plus, who wants to be the neighbor with overflowing trash cans attracting a family of rogue raccoons? Not you, that's for sure.
Signing Up: Easier Than Parallel Parking (Hopefully)
Here's the good news: signing up for Recology is about as easy as riding a cable car down Lombard Street...well, maybe a little less hair-raising. Here's what you need to do:
-
Channel your inner detective: Find your Recology account number. This magical number is hiding on your invoice, like a treasure waiting to be unearthed (although hopefully less sticky). If you've misplaced said invoice, fret not, Recology's crack team of customer service ninjas (at 415.330.1300) can help you out.

The Digital Dance: Head over to the Recology website. Don't worry, it's not one of those that blasts annoying music at you.
