A Customer Needs Help
One Request Changes the Business
When a longtime customer needed debris removed from a jobsite, they asked Rocky if he could cut the top off one of his storage containers and turn it into a dumpster. He found a way to make it work and began handling their construction debris.
That willingness to solve a customer’s problem became the foundation for everything that followed.
A Better Use for the Material
Recycling Before It Was the Standard
As the hauling business grew, Rocky saw that much of the material leaving construction sites still had value. Long before construction recycling became standard practice, he began bringing loads back, separating usable materials, and finding markets that could give them another life.

Premier Recycle Is Born
1993
Premier Recycle established a dedicated facility where construction and demolition material could be sorted, recovered, and directed to new uses at scale. As one of the Bay Area’s early construction-material sorting operations, the company helped move the industry toward a more sustainable future.

Our Mission
Solving & Simplifying C&D Recycling
Premier Recycle was born from finding a solution for one customer. Today, that same mindset guides how we serve every project: making service more dependable, recycling more transparent, and construction waste management easier for the teams that build the Bay Area.
Our Philosophy
30+ Years of Doing Things The Right Way
In an industry where customers do not always have a clear view of where their material goes or how their numbers are calculated, Premier Recycle believes transparency matters.
Every load is supported by video of the truck crossing our scale, load photos, timestamps, weight data, and scalehouse records. Because we operate the trucks and the facility, we can show our customers what happened to their material and provide reporting that can be reviewed and substantiated.
We believe trust should never depend on simply taking someone’s word for it. It should be built through honest communication, consistent records, and a willingness to stand behind the work.

Family-Owned and Operated
We Take It Personal
Premier Recycle has remained family-owned and operated for 30+ years, carrying forward the same commitment to service and problem-solving on which the company was built.
We have earned partnerships with the Bay Area’s leading construction firms by answering the phone, showing up when promised, and taking responsibility when challenges arise. The Premier Recycle name is attached to every box we deliver, every load we process, and every report we produce; and that means something to us.
