The EPA estimates over 80 billion pounds of food ends up in landfills annually in the United States, that is 30-40% of our entire food supply! Organic material that ends up in landfills decompose in anaerobic conditions (without oxygen) and produce carbon dioxide and methane – potent greenhouse gases. When we divert that same organic material to a compost facility where it is processed in an oxygen rich environment, toxic gases are not produced and the wasted food is turned into a healthy soil your plants will love! Nature is naturally regenerative. Our waste management systems have failed and it is past time that we close the loop on food waste.
We Give you a bin & lid to keep the smells in and the pests out.
Put all your organic waste into the bin. A complete list of what can be composted can be found on our FAQ page.
Leave the bin outside the night before your scheduled day and we’ll collect it. In the Spring you are eligible to receive a bag of finished compost if desired.
