Let's Get Scrappy: Redding’s New Food Waste Recycling Program
Aaron Robertson
Residential Food Waste Recycling Program For Redding, CA.
Food Waste Now Goes in Your Green Bin!
Exciting news, Redding residents! Our city has officially launched the Residential Food Waste Recycling program. This initiative is designed to make it easier and more efficient to manage food waste and contribute to a greener, cleaner environment.
What’s New?
Starting now, you’ll need to place your food waste in the green organic waste recycling bin instead of the gray trash bin. You can use a paper bag inside your green bin, but please avoid plastic or biodegradable bags, as they are not accepted.
What Can Go in the Green Bin?
YES:
- Fruit & vegetables
- Kitchen food scraps
- Eggs & eggshells
- Leftover food
- Yard clippings
- Coffee grounds
- Meat & bones
- Soiled pizza boxes
- Moldy cheese
NO:
- Food packaging
- Animal waste
- Paper cups
- Used diapers
- Beverage cartons
- Trash
- Plastic bags
- Paper & cardboard
- Plasticware
Why This Change?
This program is part of the effort to comply with Senate Bill 1383 (SB1383), which aims to reduce the amount of organic waste sent to landfills by 75% by 2025. Additionally, unused edible food from businesses will be redirected to help those in need, contributing to our community’s well-being.
Need Help Sorting?
If you’re unsure about what items can be composted, scan the provided QR code, download the mobile app, or visit the Waste Wizard tool at cityofredding.gov/wastewizard.
Let’s all do our part in making Redding a greener place to live! Wrap up by getting those food scraps into the right bin and contribute to a sustainable future for our city.
