Understanding the Newest Requirements for Recycling Organic Waste in Businesses

As of August 15, 2018, more New York businesses are required by law to separate their organic waste. The New York City Department of Sanitation (DSNY) believes that this is critical to meeting the city’s zero waste goals and requires businesses full participation to help with organic waste recycling.

Businesses who meet the following criteria must adhere to the new rules:

  • Restaurant chains of 100 or more NYC locations
  • Restaurants with 15,000 sq. ft. or more
  • Retail food stores with 25,000 sq.ft or more

All Businesses Must Follow the Rules or Risk Fines

The new rule went into effect August 15, 2018, and will be fully enforced beginning in February 2019. Any business not in compliance will be issued hefty fines by NYC DSNY.
