Like recycling, just separate your compostables and put them in your bin. Each week we pick it up from a designated outdoor location at your home.

Composting

We leave you with a clean bin every week and deliver your food scraps to our nonprofit partner, LA Compost, who works their magic.

Croplands

Compost made at LA Compost is used in members’ gardens and sold to urban farmers. As a Compostable subscriber, you are the first stage in the pipeline.
