Improving Business Recycling & Garbage Collection
To move closer to the City’s Green Vision Zero Waste Goal, the City is planning to transition all businesses in San José to a new system for garbage and recycling collection services by 2012.
To help the City determine the details of the new system, the City is working with the Survey and Policy Research Institute (SPRI), a non-profit organization of San José State University, to conduct a study on current garbage and recycling services, rates, and frequency of collection. During the month of August 2010, SPRI will randomly contact businesses to conduct the study. SPRI will keep the collected information confidential and will provide only a summary of the results to the City.
