Organics Recycling

Indian Wells implemented organic waste recycling to help respond to the climate crisis! In March 2023, residents received the new State mandated three-cart residential collection program for waste, recycling and organic collection from our community partner, Burrtec Waste & Recycling. All new carts were delivered by May 2023.

The change in our residential collection program is driven by Senate Bill 1383. To learn more about how to recycle your organic waste, view our educational webinar listed below or visit CalRecycle's website.
