Moving and getting rid of furniture.

I'm in South San Francisco,and am moving pretty far away, and I need to get rid of some furniture before I move out in a couple of weeks.

What's the best way to do that?

One thing is a mattress, but it's good quality, and the rest is wood, and nice sofa, and some chairs.

Coyote seen on Junipero Serra x Avalon (westborough exit off 280)

Last week saw a coyote at 6am right off the exit walking onto Junipero Serra coming from the residential area on Avalon.

Lived in SSF for decades and have never seen a coyote in SSF and especially this area. Made me wonder how many are walking around the residential neighborhoods at night or anytime of the day.

Keep your small pets in sight.

On the MSB

I have with good information that the MSB situation is going to become binary pretty soon. Visit the underground parking lot there and you will notice the foundation is leaking water into the lot.

The city would like to demolish and build housing there. Retired residents are pushing to preserve the building, I have with good information this outcome will NOT happen. If city council is unable to approve construction on the lot, plans are to sell the lot to a housing developer. This is within the rights of the city as it is their land.

TLDR, if residents stop the city from continuing development, the plot is intended to be sold.

How did you like the Turkey Trot?

It was the 51st annual SSF Turkey Trot today. What are you thoughts?

I wish it started more on time and there were more booths with coffee and pastries at the end.

Otherwise, Oyster Point is a great location and it was a fun crowd.

What is the MSB and what are we saving it from?

I think I know that the municipal services building is but not sure what plans are moving forward. What does saving it look like?

ATT Fiber in Westborough?

I've heard and seen of people having ATT Fiber in the area but I every time I call and ask about it to a rep over the phone they seem clueless about it. I tell them what I stated above and just say there is no fiber in the area but only DSL capped at 70mps. I really would like to get away from Xfinity and Verizon FIOS is not an option either. Im on Bettman on the south side, anyone have some inside scoops on the situation around the area? Cheers!

[SSF] My Mom Was Attacked On The Street

Update: https://www.smdailyjournal.com/news/local/man-allegedly-beats-2-women-in-south-san-francisco/article_42d629d4-9594-11ef-ab27-6745f02e5939.html

Hello Everyone,

My mom was attacked this morning on her morning walk in South San Francisco between Grand Ave/Chestnut Ave. They were able to catch the bastard who did it and my mom is thankfully okay although she did have to get stitches on her head. Never would i believe this would happen to someone i know, never ever would i imagine it would be my mom. She was walking past a man who was speaking to himself and as she passed he punched her face and continued hitting her on the floor. She was able to walk a bit albeit bloody and thankfully someone stopped to call the paramedics and the cops. Please be safe, my heart hurts and I pray this never happens to anyone

After posting this info on Nextdoor, I found out that the asshole actually went on a sort of spree beating one other woman and kicking her in the head and apparently causing a bunch of property damage before getting caught. Stay vigilant everyone…

Note: if you live around the area please let me know we are looking for video footage in the case he is let out, however we do plan to seek legal action. Also sorry if this is the wrong subreddit i wasnt able to post on r/bayarea over some dumb rule

Hiking/Walking recommendations

We're new here in South San Francisco and this is my first reddit post 😊 I'm and indoors type of person, but I've heard a lot of people talk about their very active lifestyle. I'm getting inspired to start going outdoors and appreciate the city more. Noticed a lot of hiking places around the area, but I want to ask what place would be a good place to start? Maybe Something easy to get me and my partner commit to being healthier. Thank you!!

Are guinea pig colonies roaming the streets of South City

I have seen multiple posts about Found guinea pigs showing up in SSF on next door over the last 2 years. ADDITIONALLY, my dog has alerted me to not just ONE but TWO dead guinea pigs in the street, one on Linden and the other on Orange.
Thoughts?

Hotel area near SFO - North or South

I see a cluster of hotels North, near Grand Ave & the 101, with restaurants West of the 101. Also a cluster of hotels South near Millbrae, with Millbrae having restaurant options. Are either of these two areas noticeably better than the other if you’re stuck in a hotel for awhile? No car. Public transportation into the city occasionally would be nice.

Thanks in advance.

Moving to South San Francisco - Need Advice

Hi everyone, this is my first Reddit post, and I could really use some advice. I'm moving to San Francisco for work, but I've never been there before. I'm looking for an apartment with a budget of $1,000 to $2,000. I know rent can be really expensive, so I want to be smart about my search. What areas should I avoid, and where would you recommend looking? Also, does it get really cold there? I've heard mixed things about the weather. I'll be working at 7000 Shoreline Ct STE 100, South San Francisco, and I'm hoping to find a place that's not too far from there. Any tips or whatever would be greatly appreciated!

Kaiser SSF new COVID vaccine ready?

Anyone know? Somebody in the SF subreddit claimed that it was already available at Mission Bay. I'm high risk with my job, so sooner is better for me. Plus, it took me forever to get through the line for the last booster.

Eviction “moving family in”

The master tennant has lived on premise for 10 years and the other occupants moved in around 6 months ago. They are in good standing, never late with payment etc. The landlord just sent a notice of eviction on the premise that they are moving family in. I find that highly unlikely and think it’s an excuse.

Are the renters protected under just cause? I read that the tenants are protected after 24 months after a new tenant has moved in.

If not what protections do the tenants have? In San Francisco, the landlord would need to prove and provide the identify of occupants moving in and so on.

Please advise.

Thank you

I’ve been getting my information here: https://www.smcgov.org/housing/tenants-protections-and-rights

Places that are laptop friendly

Looking for recommendations on places that are good to hang out for a couple of hours with a laptop between the hours of 6-8 PM. The library is only open until 8 PM once a week so I need other options. Absolutely no problem with a place where I can make a purchase such as a restaurant.

Biotech bros brass band

Have yall heard of any local bands rooted in our biotech community?

I’m considering starting a 9-piece funk band (trumpets, trombones, saxophones, other winds, guitar, keys, drums, percussion) to jam out for fun and eventually headline the JPMorgan healthcare conference. Anyone interested in joining? Has anyone else done something like this already in our area?
