Did you know at least 30% of what goes into our local landfills is compostable kitchen and yard waste?
When this organic waste reaches our near-capacity landfills, air cannot get to most of it, and as it breaks down, methane gas is created. This damages Earth's atmosphere.
Composting these wastes helps to reduce harmful greenhouse gases, and creates a product that can be used to help improve soil, water quality, and grow the next generation of crops
Compost Carpool offers a community-driven alternative to home composting. We collect food, yard, paper and cardboard waste and donate it to local farms and community gardens to contribute to their compost piles, or in the case of food scraps, feed their animals.
WHAT WE DO
Compost Carpool provides an option for residents and businesses to divert food from landfills and support urban farms. We offer two subscription options. Community drop off and porch pick-up. When you join the carpool, you’ll get a welcome kit that includes a bucket and instructions on what you can compost. Then, simply collect waste during the week. We will pick it up and leave you with a fresh bucket, or you can drop it off and exchange your full bucket for a new one. Leave the rest to us! You will receive 2 bags of finished compost yearly.
Visit our commercial page commercial page to learn more about larger scale composting and diversion opportunities to support local food pantries.

Have you ever thought about how many pumpkins end up in landfills every year? WE HAVE! Each year, millions of pumpkins get tossed into landfills and are often submerged under multiple layers of non- organic waste. When this happens, the pumpkins don’t have access to oxygen. This results in the creation of methane, a harmful gas that is 25 times more harmful to our atmosphere than CO2.
This year we are partnering with Porches and More for zero waste fall decorating! They decorate, we compost🌱
