Spoiled food and table scraps you toss into your brown Toter will eventually help fuel the City of Manteca refuse trucks that collect your garbage, recyclables and yard waste. Manteca is taking advantage of its unique position of being the only city in San Joaquin County to collect its own garbage plus having the area’s most advanced state-of-the-art wastewater treatment plant with built in capacity to make a state mandate to divert landfill waste one that benefits the city’s bottom line. Assembly Bill 1826 ultimately prohibits the burying of food waste in landfills.
