Compost Drop-off
Our compost drop-off program is our most affordable option at $9/month.
It’s a great choice if you don’t make enough compost for our other services.
We still do the dirty work for you!
You will receive a Nettle composting bucket and liner. You can drop off your full bucket of food scraps twice monthly at one of our amazing partner drop-off locations during their service hours.
