As of January 1, 2022, all jurisdictions in the State of California are required to comply with Senate Bill 1383 – A Short-Lived Climate Pollutant Reduction law that sets goals to reduce disposal of organic waste and edible food in landfills. Athens Services and the City of San Gabriel are working together to educate and provide information to all businesses, multi-family units and single-family residents on how to do their part.
Here is what San Gabriel is doing for businesses and residents:
-
Businesses/commercial customers: Athens Services provided flyers with details on how to successfully implement this new program.
-
Residents living in single-family homes: You will be able to use your green organics container for the collection of landscaping waste, food scraps, and 100% fiber-based, food-soiled paper. Click here for more information.
-
Residents living in multi-family units: Athens will automatically deliver a green organics cart to your property by April 1, 2022. Once you receive your green cart, you are required to place your organic waste in your green cart. Your cart will be serviced weekly on trash service days. Your service day will be the same day as the residential service areas of your neighbors.
You can also contact the Public Works Department at (626) 308-2825.
