  Building Better Communities is our Business

  CR&R was founded with the idea that collecting waste and recyclable materials is an important community responsibility. Today, this responsibility continues to evolve with the development of innovative recycling and reuse programs for our customers. We understand that each community is unique and through our educational programs and community involvement we strive to help keep our customers informed with regard to our evolving environmental landscape. Through our company’s commitment to volunteering and giving back to our communities, our employees are able to help with numerous worthy causes while spreading the message to leave less of an impact on our environment for generations to come. We strive to be an integral part of the fabric of the communities we serve. After all, we live here too and take pride in making a difference and helping people make a difference as well.

• Contamination and Monitoring

  
  SB 1383 also requires that all service routes be randomly audited on an annual basis. To stay compliant with these California mandates, CR&R will be working alongside the City of Tustin to conduct route audits.

  To reduce contamination, use the guidelines below and examples when sorting landfill, recycling, and organic materials in your carts.

• How To Effectively Recycle

  
  Please make sure your recyclables items are empty and thoroughly scraped of any contents prior to placing them in your recycling cart. Heavily-soiled recyclables can contaminate an entire truck full of recyclables materials, causing recyclables materials to go to the landfill instead of being recycled.
  The following items are recyclable:

  1. Plastics larger than a credit card – These are typically items like large plastic containers or household items that are easy to sort.
  2. Plastic bottles – Examples include water bottles, soda bottles, and detergent bottles.
  3. Plastic containers – Items like your yogurt tubs, buckets, and “clamshell” to-go containers (those clear, hinged containers often used for salads or bakery items).

  Recycling Tip: Use left-over dishwater to quickly rinse out residue from your recyclables.

  Organics Recycling
  Kitchen Food Scrap Pails make organics recycling easy. Simply discard food scraps, coffee grounds, or yard waste into your kitchen pail and empty the contents into your green organics cart.

  Mixed-use Recycling
  To prevent contamination from occurring in your CR&R carts, it is important to identify and remove materials unsuitable for recycling. Please review this section for more information on what’s acceptable and unacceptable for recycling.

  For questions about what is recyclable, please contact Tustin’s Sustainability Specialists at Tustin-Recycles@crrmail.com.

• Hazardous Wastes

  
  Household Hazardous Wastes (HHW) are products that are flammable, corrosive, reactive, or toxic. Due to California’s environmental legislation, it is illegal to dispose of HHW in any of your CR&R containers.

  Common examples of HHW include:

  • Cleaning products (e.g., shower/floor cleaners, ammonia, rust remover, etc.)
  • Auto maintenance products (e.g., brake fluid, antifreeze, motor oil, etc.)
  • Home maintenance products (e.g., paints, pesticides, pool chemicals, etc.)
  • Personal care items (e.g., nail polish and remover, hair dye)
  • Electronic waste (e.g., televisions, speakers, computers, etc.)
  • Universal waste (e.g., batteries, fluorescent bulbs, non-empty aerosol cans, etc.)

  Annual HHW Drop-Off Events
  CR&R also holds two (2) free HHW drop-off events twice a year for Tustin residents at a location and on a date to be announced.

  Next HHW Waste Collection Event: November 15th, 2025

  Event Hours: 8 AM to 4 PM
  Location: 235 E. Main St. Tustin, CA 92780
