Mandatory recycling and organics separation required under SB 1383. Green cart accepts both yard waste and food scraps since May 2022. All California cities must comply with organics diversion requirements.
Inglewood mandates curbside recycling for paper, cardboard, glass, aluminum, and plastics #1-#5. Residents must separate recyclables from trash using provided bins. Contaminated bins containing food waste, plastic bags, or non-recyclable items may be rejected. California recycling goals encourage diversion from landfills.

Contaminated bins may be tagged and skipped. Repeat contamination: $25 to $100 fine. Failure to recycle where mandatory: warning then fine.
