WHAT CAN YOU COMPOST?
Any food or food scrap can be thrown in the bin, period. All meat, all dairy, all produce… ALL food substances. Non-bleached paper is allowed in bins and BPI Certified compostable containers as well.
HOW DOES THIS WORK?
Leave your 5 gallon food scrap bucket on your home’s doorstep and we’ll be by to collect your scraps and leave you with a new biodegradable bucket liner.
Or, simply dump your bucket at one of our drop off sites.
After composting with us for a full year, residential customers can attend one of our spring compost earn back events and receive 5-10 gallons worth of compost to use at home!
Weekly pick up works well for a 1 or 2 person household that often cooks at home, or for a 3+ person household that cooks regularly at home. Prices may vary by location.
Biweekly pickup works well for 1 or 2 person household that regularly cooks at home, or for a 3+ person household that rarely cooks at home. Prices may vary by location.
Prefer not to keep track of pickup days? Use one of our bear-proof bins near your home so you can drop off scraps whenever it’s convenient for you.
We do not offer single drop offs for residential households.
About 35% of household waste is food scraps. Divert it from the landfill to decrease landfill expansion, reduce methane emissions, and reduce herbicide use!
