Zero Waste Events

Headed for Zero Waste


Here in the City of San Mateo, we are dedicated to sustainability and the well-being of our environment and residents. All events sponsored by the City are geared towards achieving zero waste. This means that we strive to divert as much material as we can away from the landfill.

Below are examples of Zero Waste events hosted by the City of San Mateo:
Bayfront Clean-up
Date: Sept. 18, 2021
Location: Ryder Park - 1801 J. Hart Clinton Drive -San Mateo, CA 94401
Every year, hundreds of volunteers pick up thousands of pounds of debris. After the event, we host a free BBQ to thank our volunteers for all their hard work. Come join in on the fun and help keep our Bay Front clean and beautiful! Be sure to check our website calendar for the exact date of this event.
