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 up to twice monthly at one of our amazing partner drop-off locations during their service hours.
