SOS Recycleinfo@sosreycle.orgP 661-369-5890SOS Recycle, short for Service! Our Specialty, started in 2011 as a resource for local businesses. SOS provides recycling and pressure washing to local restaurants, retail and office buildings. The company also implements services that help businesses comply with AB-341, a law that makes recycling mandatory.
Day Smith, owner of SOS, went through the Green Certification process three years ago. Since he got certified so soon after starting his business, he didn't need to make a lot of changes in his day-to-day operating procedure. Instead, he used the certification checklist as a guide for sustainability as he grew his business. During the process of preparing his new customer location, the Green Certification checklist has been a reference for putting environmentally responsible procedures in place.
