Oakley FAQ
Do I really have to put food scraps in my green cart?
Yes. California SB 1383 requires all residents to separate organic waste including food scraps. Place them loose in the cart or in a countertop pail with paper liner, then empty into the green cart before pickup.
What if I have a large tree branch to dispose of?
Branches over 4 inches in diameter or 4 feet long won't fit in the green cart. Schedule a bulky item pickup with Republic Services or haul to the Pittsburg Transfer Station. Professional tree work should be removed by the contractor.
