Organic Waste Recycling Community Workshop (Residential)

In a statewide effort to reduce the amount of organic waste disposed in landfills, California passed Senate Bill (SB) 1383, Short-Lived Climate Pollutant Reduction Law. This law requires a 75% reduction in statewide organic waste disposal and a 20% increase in edible food waste recovery by 2025.

To achieve this requirement, all businesses and multifamily properties, are required to arrange for organic waste collection services as of January 1, 2022 and residents will use their existing green waste cart to collect food waste starting July 1, 2022. SB 1383 defines organic waste as meat, bones, dairy, fruit and vegetable scraps, landscape clippings, and food soiled paper such as napkins and paper towels.

To assist with this transition, the City and WM are partnering to host Organic Waste Recycling Community Workshops. The workshops will be a great way for residents and businesses to learn about organic waste recycling requirements, discuss proper sorting tips, and meet WM representatives.

Residents will also receive a residential service guide from WM mailed to their service address. For more information on SB 1383 requirements or to ask questions, please reach out to sblackwell@eastvaleca.gov.
