Compost
Composting is one of the simplest ways to make a meaningful impact on our planet. Our compost collection program helps turn everyday food scraps and organic materials into nutrient-rich soil instead of landfill waste.
By bringing your compostable items to us, you are helping reduce greenhouse gas emissions, enrich local soils and support a more sustainable community. Small actions add up and we can transform waste into new life.
