San Francisco Upgrades Trash Cans to Stainless Steel to Prevent Rodents

06/25/2025 By Ed DeMask

Every day in San Francisco there are 2,800 public trash cans throughout the city. The trash cans have been designed and voted down to three designs, with the final to come soon.

 

Recently the public works department upgraded its trash cans to Soft Square, which is made of four curved panels with a stainless-steel design. The steel design allows for both trash and recycling and is a great benefit in other ways.

 

 

Rats and mice, both of whom have incredibly strong incisors, can chew through wood, aluminum, and even poorly cured concrete. But not stainless steel – so the best rodent-prevention products are made of it.

 

Burrtec USA recently has been in the news for its new Ratshut weatherstrip that prevents mice and rats – as well as dust and dirt – from entering into a garage. The company also has a product for typical residential and commercial doors.

 

Burrtec USA is a leading manufacturer of door sweep solutions, providing quality exclusion products to PMPs and building material suppliers. It is the North American division of Burrtec Co., Ltd., one of Japan’s largest pest control producers. To learn more about Burrtec, visit our U.S. website.
