Multifamily Programs
Nearly 25% of Riverside County's population lives in multi-family communities. To meet the needs of multi-family communities, the City of Moreno Valley, in partnership with Waste Management, has developed effective recycling resources and strategies.

SB 1383
SB 1383 targets the reduction of methane emissions from landfills. The law establishes a target of 75% reduction in statewide disposal of organic waste by 2025.
Beginning January 1, 2022, all businesses, multi-family complexes, and residential homes are required to recycle their organic waste.
All green waste, food scraps, and food-soiled paper (100% fiber based) must be separated in the green organics’ container provided by Waste Management.
In addition, Edible Food Generators must recover the maximum amount of edible food that would otherwise be disposed of, arrange for food donation and collection through contracts or written agreements with food recovery organizations or services, and maintain food donation records.
