On-site porter service, six days a week

Green Glove Heroes provides on-site porter service for multifamily properties across Northern California. Our full-time, uniformed crews are on your property Sunday through Friday, at times set by routing and your property's needs. They sort trash, recycling, and organics by hand and stage the containers for pickup, and while they're there, they keep your trash rooms and enclosures in order. We photograph and date every visit, and you get links so you can view the photos yourself.

Our porter services

6-Day On-Site Service

Our crews are on your property Sunday through Friday on a fixed schedule built around routing and your property's needs. They catch overflow and contamination on their rounds, before it turns into a hauler charge or a city notice. Saturday is open for trash-outs, power washing, extra bulk, and emergencies.

Check out our weekly schedule

Push-Pull Container Management

We move your trash, recycling, and organics containers to the collection point before pickup and back after pickup, timed to your hauler's route. Every move is photographed. Your maintenance team gets its early mornings back.

Trash Room & Bin Care

Crews clear trash rooms and chute rooms and reset every container to its position and label. Damaged bins get reported, and we schedule the repair with your vendor. Bin cleaning is handled by our washing contractor without chemicals.

We keep your trash room in order

Proof of Service & Monitoring

We take detailed records and photographs. We provide access to these records anytime you want to see them. When a crew finds a problem, we reach out to you first. That same record settles hauler disputes and answers city notices.

We make it easy to see records and documented data

Enclosure Power Washing

We schedule pressure washing and odor control for enclosures, dumpster pads, bins, and the surrounding hardscape, and our washing contractor does the work without cleaning chemicals.

How valet trash compares to porter service

Valet trash

Valet trash is a resident amenity where a crew picks up bagged trash from each resident's door on set evenings, and residents are usually billed for it as a monthly fee.

Porter service

Porter service is the work at the other end: the containers, trash rooms, and enclosures where all that trash ends up. That is where contamination is photographed, the hauler bill is determined, and your property is inspected.

Green Glove Heroes does not offer door-to-door valet trash services. However, many of our client properties run both. At a 348-unit Rohnert Park community, we aligned the existing valet provider's set-out and sorting with the hauler and the City, and the hauler bill dropped 39%. Read that case study.

We work for you while your hauler does the collecting

Your hauler's revenue grows when your service level does. We don't transport your recurring trash, recycling, or organics, so we have no stake in selling you bigger service. Our crews run the operation on-site; our team audits the bill, disputes charges, and handles your hauler and your city on your behalf. That is how we keep you ahead of AI trucks, SB 1383, and whatever the next regulation is, instead of paying for it.

Porter service questions

It's an on-site crew that manages the property's waste operation every day by sorting the streams, moving containers for collection, keeping trash rooms and enclosures in order, and documenting the work. The hauler still collects; the porter service makes sure what they collect is right.

Door-to-door pickup of bagged trash from each resident's unit on set evenings, usually billed to residents. Green Glove Heroes does not offer it. We work on the containers, trash rooms, and enclosures, and we work alongside valet trash service providers when a property has one.

No. Your existing hauler collects your trash, recycling, and organics, and we work with them on your behalf.

Yes. As part of our on-site service, we remove bulk items and e-waste and handle vacant-unit trash-outs. Appliances, electronics, TVs, and monitors go straight from your property to a facility that accepts them. We don't take oil, paint, light bulbs, or other liquids, and we'll point you to the right vendor for those.

Our crews are on-site Sunday through Friday on a fixed schedule, with times based on routing and your property's needs, and Saturday stays available for trash-outs, power washing, bulk, and emergencies.

Yes. Trash rooms and chute rooms are cleared, and containers reset as part of daily service. Bin repairs are reported and scheduled with your hauler or vendor, and bins are washed by our power-wash contractor without chemicals.

Your daily service is delivered by full-time, W-2, uniformed Green Glove Heroes employees trained in your jurisdiction's Zero Waste requirements. You also get a dedicated account manager.

We provide it at multifamily properties across Northern California, in Sonoma, Napa, Marin, Alameda, Contra Costa, Santa Clara, San Mateo, San Francisco, Santa Cruz, and Solano counties.
