About the Mussel Rock Cleanup in Daly City:
Site captains: Chris, Helen, Myrna, Ted & Joe
Time: Saturday from 9am-11am, rain or shine.
Where to Meet: At the Mussel Rock carpark located at the lower coastal end of Westline Drive by the second entrance to Allied Waste Transfer Station. Drive north past the junction of Skyline Drive, avoiding the other Westline Drive that goes up a steep hill.
Parking: Free parking is available all the time on any of the roads or at the car park at the meet up spot. Follow the signs to the car park so that you do not get lost on the other Westline Drive that ends up above the Transfer Station.
Cleanup Areas: The team cleans up the streets, bluffs, car park and park, itself, as well as the beach if the tide is out far enough for our safety.
Supplies: Volunteers are encouraged to bring their own buckets and reusable gloves. Extra gloves, buckets, pickup sticks and specific tools for this site cleanup will be provided while supplies last.
Litter: The team usually picks up plastic bags, bottles, cigarettes and other household waste because this is where the Bay Area’s trash is brought before it is transferred to other sites.
Restrooms: Regrettably, there are no public restrooms at this site.
Special Regulations & Precautions
Dogs: Permitted off leash in the park, but there are resident coyotes that may lure dogs away to danger, if they are off leash. This is not a concern if your dog is under excellent voice control and performs recall well. Please be responsible and pick up your dog waste.
Be sure to read through the Cleanup Guidelines before attending the cleanup.

On Friday, over 50 volunteers suited up with buckets and gloves and filled a quarter of a giant dumpster with trash. Among the peculiar items we discovered were a complete bird skull, an array of toys, and, unsurprisingly, fireworks. PBC’s President, Lynn even salvaged a beach tent from the dumpster, which has potential to be repurposed for the Fog Fest. Two kids (pictured below) were especially impressive, collecting an entire tub of cigarette butts, while one girl returned with several buckets filled with interesting toy cars, sand toys, and […]
- A Global Effort for a Cleaner San Pedro CreekThis month’s San Pedro Creek cleanup was a resounding success, welcoming 20 enthusiastic participants, with a significant portion being youth visitors from Japan. Our environmental champions brought an infectious energy, diving into the work with eagerness and a genuine desire to help. Their efforts were nothing short of remarkable as they tackled heavy, bulky items such as bicycle tires and parts and of course, discarded fireworks from Independence Day celebrations. One dedicated individual also collected an astounding 254 cigarette butts, contributing to our total haul of 382 pounds of debris removed from the creek and its surroundings. The […]
