How One Marin Apartment Complex Succeeds with Composting Compliance

California state law AB 1826 requires all businesses and multifamily residences of 5 or more units producing over 2 cubic yards of solid waste to subscribe to compostables service.

This case study, put together by the City of San Rafael, describes how Sessions Rise, a 73-unit group of condos, came into compliance with the help of one resident, her HOA, and Marin Sanitary Service.

Key to the success of the program were clear signage and use of distributed, smaller collection bins to ensure that every resident is just a brief walk from proper disposal.
