Claremont: Green Waste Recycling

Press release from the City of Claremont:

April 15, 2021

The City offers green waste recycling services to all single-family residents. Items that should be placed in the green container include grass clippings, leaves, plant prunings, flowers, twigs, and small branches (less than 4 inches in diameter and 4 feet long). As a courtesy reminder, palm fronds, cacti, succulents, dirt, rock, and animal waste, plastic, and trash are not compostable and should always be placed in the trash container. Palm fronds in particular are a significant source of contamination, which can lead to increased processing costs. For more information regarding green waste recycling, please contact the Sanitation Division at (909) 399-5431.
