How Carter's Collection Works
We transform food scraps into compost for the local community and hope you will join in keeping materials out of landfills to create something new!
Food Scrap Collection Service
Drop-off & Collection
Sign up and we will bring a bucket to your house or a cart to your business. Just like that, start adding compostable materials to your collection vessel throughout the week!
Pickup/Drop-off
A Carter's Crewmember will stop by, swap out your bucket or cart and bring it back to add to the compost pile. Drop-off options are seasonally available as well.
Pile Management
We mix in carbon, aka "browns," to keep the pile balanced while also ensuring moisture and temperature are just right for the worms and other micro-organisms to do their thing.
Sharing Finished Compost
Finished compost is included with subscriptions or available for sale so that you can use it to grow yummy veggies (or pretty flowers)!
