What Goes in Each Bin?
If you’re unsure what belongs where, click here for a simple guide to recycling, organics, landfill items and special disposal options.
Organics Recycling
Download the city’s flyer for a quick look at what is and isn’t allowed in the organics recycling bins. Use compostable bags when possible; paper bags and newspaper also work well.
To find your closest organics cart, use the interactive map or printable map. If a cart is out of place, email LagunaWoods-Recycles@CRRmail.com to report it.
Some green waste is OK, but avoid overfilling bins with garden trimmings. Instead, schedule a Friday pickup at residentservices@vmsinc.org or 949-597-4600.
Bulky Items
Place items next to your shared enclosure or curbside by your usual cart location between 7 p.m. the night before and 8 a.m. on collection day. No need to call—CR&R will take care of it by day’s end.
Avoid blocking enclosures or containers. Do not set out car parts, hazardous waste or oversized items requiring more than two people to lift.
