Did you know that the State of California recently passed a law that requires local city governments to do everything they can to divert sources of organic waste from our state´s landfills? Though most of the attention has focused on reducing food waste and kitchen scraps, the law also applies to other sources or organic waste such as grass clippings, bags of leaves, fallen tree limbs, and other types of yard waste. 

The law, which is known as SB 1383, specifically establishes targets to achieve a 75 percent reduction in the level of statewide disposal of organic waste and a 20 percent reduction in the level of statewide disposal of edible food. By reducing the amount of organic waste that is sent to landfills, the law seeks to: 

• Reduce pressure on our already overburdened landfill system.
• Help reduce methane emissions from the disposal of organic waste in landfills. 
• Stimulate best practices to reduce food waste. 
• Motivate recycling and composting of all sources of organic waste 

With fall time just around the corner, this new state law might affect how homeowners, business owners, and other residents of Long Beach go about getting rid of their yard waste. Below, we take an in-depth look at why Junk King of Long Beach offers the absolutely best way to help individuals and businesses deal with their yard waste in the most efficient and environmentally friendly way.

The Advantages of Hiring Junk King of Long Beach for your Yard Waste Removal Needs 

Though you could hire a landscaping service that offers to self-haul the yard waste they create, it is important to understand that this service is most likely going to be expensive. Landscaping companies don’t specialize in junk hauling, and sometimes they may even sub-contract the hauling service to a third party, thus further increasing the overall cost. 

Also, the local government of Long Beach still doesn’t offer a reliable service for yard waste collection and disposal that meets the requirements of the state law. According to the Long Beach City website:  “the City is developing a residential organics collection program, but like many other cities in the state, has experienced some challenges due to supply shortages and a lack of infrastructure in the area to support the processing of organic materials. Residents will receive notice of the program and educational materials prior to any new program’s implementation.” 

Given these difficulties, hiring a private junk hauler is often the only feasible alternative for residents of Long Beach looking to get rid of their yard waste in a quick and efficient manner while still complying with the new state law. When you hire Junk King of Long Beach, you can rest assured that we will: 

• Do all of the heavy lifting and hauling: There is no need to take those heavy bags of leaves and grass clippings out to the curb. Simply let our junk removal teams know where your yard waste is located and we will do the rest.
• Make every effort to compost or recycle your yard waste: We are proud to be the greenest and most sustainable junk removal company in Long Beach. Besides offering superior customer service and competitive pricing, 60 percent of all the trash items that we pick up are either donated, reused, or recycled.

In the specific case of yard waste items, our landfill diversion rate approaches 100 percent as we are working with several composting organizations in our region. 
• Offer the absolute best customer service that you deserve: When you hire us for your yard waste removal needs in Long Beach, our customer service teams will work with you to ensure that your yard waste gets picked up as quickly as possible.
• Never put absurd limitations on what yard waste items we can and cannot haul away: Unfortunately, some junk removal companies may put into place severe restrictions and limitations on what types of items they can haul away.

With Junk King, however, we can haul away virtually any type of junk item as long as it is not classified as toxic waste.
