Community Bin Program

NEW! Community Bin Composting

We’ve expanded our food waste diversion strategies to make composting even more convenient AND affordable! Now at participating locations listed below, you can bring your own container of table scraps (up to 5 gallons) to dump in one of our community bins. Get the lock code from inside the business and pay $5 to send those precious scraps to have a new life in the soil!

Economical

No bin fee or cleaning fee! Use your own container, up to 5 gallons, and turn those food scraps into nutrient-dense Earth without having to do any of the dirty work.

Convenience

Depositing food waste while you’re running errands, or along your daily commute, reduces the number of miles food waste must travel to be recycled!
