What’s right about sending food scraps to commercial composting facilities?

Posted on September 20, 2018July 24, 2019 by Collective Resource

The food scraps in the commercial composting facilities are given the right environment to biodegrade thus do not contribute to methane gas production.

ABOUT COLLECTIVE RESOURCE

Collective Resource, Inc. is a woman-owned compost and food scrap pickup service based in Evanston. We collect all food waste and compostable products from homes, businesses, and institutions and take them to a commercial composting site. The food scraps then become ​a nutrient-rich soil amendment instead of sitting in a landfill.

Commercial composting is different from backyard composting, because anything that was once alive (including meat and dairy products) can be composted. In addition to hauling compost, we educate the public about the importance of reducing landfill use.
