Organics

Place yard trimmings directly into cart. Do not use plastic bags. Do not put dirt, rocks, trash or recyclables in this cart. All material must fit in cart or will not be collected. NOTE: California State Law, SB 1383 requires residents to recycle organic waste which includes food and green waste. Food waste must be contained in a plastic or paper bag and placed alongside your yard trimmings in your organics (green) cart. Free food waste pails are available to all residents. To obtain a food waste pail, call WM at 800-675-1171. For more information on organics recycling, please click here.
