Waste Management is the exclusive franchised hauler for residential solid waste, recycling, and organics in Moreno Valley, providing weekly curbside service with three-cart collection under SB 1383 compliance.
Moreno Valley contracts with Waste Management under an exclusive residential franchise agreement that gives every residential household curbside service once per week. Each single-family residence receives a three-cart system: a gray or black cart for trash, a blue cart for mixed commingled recycling, and a green cart for organics including yard waste and food scraps (required under SB 1383 statewide organic waste mandate). Standard cart size is 96 gallons with smaller options available on request. Collection typically runs between 6 a.m. and 6 p.m. on the assigned day; carts should be out by 6 a.m. Holidays shift service by one day for the remainder of the week when the holiday falls on a weekday. The city publishes a holiday schedule for New Year's Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. Missed pickups should be reported to Waste Management within 24 hours. The city also offers bulky item pickup on request.
Specific penalty amounts for this ordinance are not published in a publicly accessible fine schedule. Contact Moreno Valley code enforcement directly for current fines, enforcement procedures, and hearing options.
