To know if your shoes should be donated or recycled, use these simple guidelines:

Recycle your shoes if…

They’re full of holes or are just too trashed to wear.

The soles are worn out or the tread is gone.

If the cushioning looks crinkled, rippled or lacks support.

Donate your shoes if…

Your shoes still have life in them.

They’re still in good shape, but you no longer like them.

Miramar Landfill

The Miramar Landfill is located next to Miramar Greenery which accepts yard waste. There is also a last chance to recycle or donate items at Goodwill, located right next to the landfill at Miramar Recycling.

* Effective Oct. 1, 2018, the Miramar Landfill, Greenery and Recycling Center will be closed on Sundays. These facilities are also closed on the following holidays:  New Year’s Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day.

ATTENTION LANDFILL VISITORS: The landfill currently accepts only CASH and CHECKS as payment, please remember this and plan ahead prior to arriving to the pay booths. 

LANDFILL: Self-dumping vehicles accepted until 4 p.m. and NO clean fill dirt program trucks after 4 p.m.

INCLEMENT WEATHER: Due to rain or other weather-related issues at the landfill and greenery operations, the City, at its sole discretion, reserves the right to temporarily close to vehicles with trailers. This would occur in the event conditions at the tipping deck are not conducive to the maneuvering of vehicles with trailers. It becomes a safety issue to both the public and our employees and a hindrance to operations when dealing with incapacitated vehicles.

For questions or concerns regarding the Miramar Landfill, please contact the Environmental Services Customer Support Center at 858-694-7000 or email trash@sandiego.gov

H&M – National City (Textile Recycling Program)

Go to any H& M to drop off a bag of clean unwanted textiles from any brand — used tees, dresses, underwear, socks, stockings, ripped tights, even old or used towels and sheets and you’ll get rewarded with an H&M store voucher!  Here’s how it works:

Don’t want it? Recycle.

Our garment collecting program was rolled out in 2013, and we have recycling boxes in stores across the globe. It works like this:

1. Bring any unwanted clothes or textiles, by any brand and in any condition, to one of our stores.

2. Hand in your bag of old clothes at the register and receive a thank-you coupon to use toward your next purchase. Easy!

Once you’ve dropped off your previously loved fashion in one of our garment collecting boxes, our business partner takes over. It empties the boxes and sorts the contents into three categories:

Rewear: Wearable clothes are marketed as secondhand clothing.

Reuse: If the clothes or textiles are not suitable for rewear, they’re turned into other products, such as remake collections or cleaning cloths.

Recycle: All other clothes and textiles are shredded into textile fibers and used to make, for example, insulation materials.

Only want it for tonight? Rent.

In 2019, we launched a rental service in one of our stores in Stockholm where you can rent select outfits from our Conscious Exclusive collections. You can own the look, without owning the garment. Genius!

Green Shredding

Green Shredding began as San Diego Shredders in 2005 after Chris Reynolds tried to get a paper shredding service to shred one box of documents. He called every company in San Diego and Los Angeles with little luck. He finally found a company in Orange County that would shred his box if he waited on the curb for an hour and paid them $140. It was settled.

HE CASHED IN HIS 401K, BOUGHT A TRUCK AND SHREDDER AND HE WAS IN BUSINESS.

In the beginning, he targeted small business and residential customers with Google and Yahoo internet marketing. He was his only competition because the big shredding companies did not use internet marketing, nor did they care about servicing that segment of the market.

San Diego Shredders grew very quickly in a niche market.

In 2008, Green Shredding was born (and incorporated). San Diego Shredders had always recycled, but the new company was going several steps farther. Reynolds created a business that is in every way eco-friendly. No more giant diesel trucks polluting the environment. No more waste. Green Shredding is the only shredding company in the world to utilize a 100% Green fleet and offer a free reuse program for office supplies.
