Not only does Neighborhood Compost help you keep your food scraps out of landfill, we are here to help you recycle items that you can't typically recycle curbside. We've partnered with TerraCycle to offer your workplace, Zero Waste Bags. Learn more here.

We send a contamination fee to our commercial subscribers when there is an excess of contamination in your organic matter, i.e. produce stickers, rubber bands, plastic, or other non-organic materials. We sort through the material by hand to remove any non-organic matter. Our finished compost is used to grow food, so please be mindful and remove all non-organic material before placing items in your compost container to avoid a contamination fee.
