The City of Rosemead has a commercial food waste recycling program available to all businesses.
California State Law AB 1826: Mandatory Commercial Organics Recycling mandates that businesses with more than 4 yards of trash per week are required to compost food waste.
The City has a great composting program with Republic Services to offer businesses different options to begin composting!
Here are flyers and posters to help you get started:
- Food Scrap Collection Equipment & Materials Flyer
- AB 1826 Mandatory Commercial Recycling Brochure
- Food Waste Recycling Poster (Mandarin Translation)
- Food Donation Flyer
- Container Sizes
Republic Services can visit your business and provide you with free stickers and posters to help you get started! To schedule a free waste consultation, email Renee at [email protected]
Businesses that are outstanding environmental leaders and participate in recycling and food waste recycling programs are nominated for the new “Business Sustainability & Environmental Leader Award”. Email Renee at [email protected] for more information!
