SB 827 - Commercial and Organic Waste Recycling Bins

Existing law requires a business that generates 4 cubic yards or more of commercial solid waste or 8 cubic yards or more of organic waste per week to arrange for recycling services, as specified.

Requirements

AB 827 requires businesses subject to AB 1826 and AB 341 to provide customers with recycling and/or organics collection bins or containers to collect materials that are from products purchased on the premises.  These bins or containers must be visible, easily accessible, adjacent to garbage bins and clearly marked with labels of what goes in each bin.
