Announcing our new compost/food scrap pickup service! Here’s how it works:
Subscribe to our compost program and we will drop a 5-gallon bucket off at your house on our next pickup day (schedule posted below).
Fill your bucket with approved food scraps (see list below) and leave it outside by 8am on the next pickup date (pick ups are every two weeks).
We will come pick up your bucket and leave you a clean one.
Repeat the cycle - it’s that easy!
