Newport Beach, CA Trash & Recycling: Yard Waste Collection (2026)

06's SB 1383 diversion program, controls what happens to green waste and wood waste after it leaves a Newport Beach property. 020 as trimmings from trees or shrubs, plants, grass cuttings, or removed or discarded branches, shrubs, plants, leaves, or other materials from landscapes or gardens. 050 requires anyone collecting green waste or wood waste in the City to either compost it on site or deliver it to a permitted green waste or wood waste processing facility for diversion, rather than sending it to a landfill.

Subsection (B) closes an end-run around that rule: no generator may allow green waste or wood waste collected in the City to be used as landfill alternative daily cover, even material that has already gone through a permitted processing facility. 9(c) instead of putting it in a City-designated cart. 090, which require lids that keep out odor, pests, and rain, and require carts to be maintained in a clean, sanitary condition. 150.
