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.

- 69 Volunteers at Foster City Cleanup
We had a well-attended and successful cleanup at 100 Grand Plaza in Foster City on Sunday, November 17, 2024. Among the whopping 69 volunteers, we collected: Did you know: 4,550 butts nearly fills a 5-gallon bucket?! Plus, at almost every cleanup we find a surprising item of interest. This time around, our intrepid volunteers came back with a commercial cooking grill and three shopping carts. Special thanks to our volunteers from Hillsdale High School, Notre Dame High and Grade Schools and the Young Men’s Service League. You made a big difference in a short amount of time! - 38 Volunteers at Esplanade Beach Cleanup
We were treated to a sunny morning for our monthly beach cleanup at Esplanade Beach in Pacifica on Saturday, November 16, 2024. Thirty-eight volunteers, 10 of whom were teens from various Bay Area schools, joined us and collectively picked up: Perhaps the most fun and unusual find of the day was a small pirate rubber ducky. You never know what you might uncover during one of our cleanups. Additionally, a family, who champions Pacific Beach Coalition, came down from San Francisco and revealed they’re “addicted” to beach cleanups. We love the enthusiasm and support! - Join the Coastal Guardians Club this Giving Tuesday
