As of January 1, 2022, people and organizations throughout California are required to separate organic material (mainly food scraps and yard waste) from other garbage. The composting law was one of 770 California laws that went into effect at the beginning of 2022.
SB 1383 establishes statewide targets for the reduction of 75 percent of organic waste sent to landfills by 2030. SB 1383 recovers at least 20 percent of the surplus edible food for human consumption by 2025. This is a statewide goal.
Beginning January 1, 2022, all California residents, businesses, and multifamily complexes will be required to separate food waste and yard waste from their trash and recycle in a separate organics cart.
The California Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle) regulates solid waste (trash) landfills in California.
Throwing away your kitchen food scraps in the trash can could be breaking a California law in some cases. Starting in 2024, State Law #SB 1383 says cities could fine you for not recycling your food waste.
This state law requires each jurisdiction in California to divert at least 50% of its waste stream away from landfills either through waste reduction, recycling or other means.
