Requirements for Multi-family Unit Property Owners

Assembly Bill 1826 (AB 1826) requires multifamily properties and homeowner associations exceeding five units to develop a program to recycle green waste, rather than sending it to a landfill. Green/landscaping waste includes leaves, grass clippings, landscape wood waste, and weeds. Additionally, AB 1826 prohibits the disposal of landscaping waste in a multifamily's trash or recycling dumpsters. In order to comply with the law, a multifamily property can utilize any combination of these three options:

  1. Require landscape contractors to recycle green waste by hauling it to a composting/recycling facility.
  2. On-site processing through chipping or composting, and re-use on site.
  3. Self-haul green waste to a recycling, composting or agricultural facility.
More information on about California's green waste recycling requirements is available from the California Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery's website.

Assembly Bill 341 (AB 341) requires all businesses (commercial and multifamily) in California that generate 4 or more cubic yards of waste per week to recycle. Participating in a recycling program will assist your business in meeting the new recycling requirement. Businesses may also donate, sell and/ or self-haul materials to a recycling facility.
