Trash, recycling, and organics bins in Orange must be stored out of public view except on collection days. CR&R Environmental Services collects all three streams. Bins should be placed curbside by 6:00 AM on collection day and retrieved by the end of the day.
The City of Orange contracts with CR&R Environmental Services ((714) 372-8272) for residential trash, recyclables, and organics collection. Trash bins must be stored behind the front building line and out of sight from the street except on collection days. Bins should be placed at the curb by 6:00 AM on collection day with lids closed, at least 3 feet apart and 3 feet from obstacles. Bins must be retrieved from the curb and returned to storage by the end of collection day. Overflowing bins creating litter are a code enforcement issue. As of January 2024, the state mandates participation in organics recycling — residents must use the green waste bin for food scraps and yard waste. Failure to participate in organics recycling may result in fines.
Leaving bins at the curb on non-collection days or storing bins in view of the street may result in code enforcement notices and fines.
