Marin Sanitary Service Information

Since MSS was founded its evolution has closely paralleled that of Marin County itself. We have grown philosophically with our customers, and believe in the power of recycling to preserve our natural resources. As a result, we are well on our way to achieving our goal of zero waste. Our three divisions work together to provide comprehensive collection, recycling, and education services:Marin Sanitary Service (MSS) - Provides weekly residential and commercial waste collection, street sweeping, and recyclables pick-up services. Marin Recycling Center (MRC) - Accepts and processes collected recyclables including glass bottles and jars, aluminum and tin cans, plastic containers #1-7, waste papers, and cardboard. The center also provides community education through the Environmental Classroom. Marin Resource Recovery Center (MRRC) - Accepts and processes non-hazardous materials through a customized system of screens, conveyors, blowers, magnets, and hand-sorting. It also offers debris box rental. Marin Household Hazardous Waste Facility (MHHWF) - Accepts hazardous materials from Marin residents and businesses.
