Mandatory Commercial Recycling

Recycling Mandates for Businesses

Under State of California law AB 341, businesses are required to arrange for recycling services if any of the following criteria are met:
 
  1. Business that generates four (4) or more cubic yards of trash per week
  2. Multi-family residential property with five (5) or more units. Multi-family properties of 4 units or less are currently exempt.

Establishing Recycling Services

You may comply with the AB 341 mandatory commercial requirements by contacting CR&R Incorporated at 562-694-3730 or 866-742-8850 to establish recycling services. Recycling is offered at half the price of trash service to all businesses and multi-family customers within the City.

Many businesses have reduced their trash bill by diverting a significant amount of recyclables and have been able to reduce the size of their trash container.
