Placement of all containers at the curb is essential to ensure collection by automated trucks. Place your waste container on either side of your driveway, 12” from the curbside so water can flow freely along the gutter.at the edge of the curb. Allow a minimum of three (3) feet of clearance on all sides of the container from objects such as trees, fences, mailboxes, streetlights, and other containers. Containers must be a minimum of six (6) feet from any vehicles. Keep sidewalk clear for pedestrian passage.

Collection Schedule
Your organic waste container may be brown or green. Your Service Provider will be phasing in green organic waste containers in accordance with SB 1383 regulations.
State legislation requires all residents and businesses to divert organic waste from the landfill. Statewide surveys show that up to 40% of the waste stream is made up of organic waste. Landfilling organic waste leads to the anaerobic breakdown of material, which creates methane. Diverting organic waste to a recycling facility can significantly reduce local air quality emissions and associated negative environmental and health impacts.
