What We Do

Curbside Compost collects food scraps from residential and commercial locations in Connecticut and New York. Our process ensures that food scraps are brought to compost facilities, not burn plants or landfills. This decreases waste and pollution, and produces healthy, rich soil to give back to the earth. We're staying true to our roots by leveraging our planet's oldest method of recycling.

At the end of the composting cycle, we offer compost delivery for you to enjoy the fruits of your efforts.

Great folks doing something good for the environment! Best parts are how easy and inexpensive the service is and how much food waste I've taken out of my trash. And their mulch is great too!

It's easy to do and much better for the environment than tossing food scraps in the garbage. I'm really grateful that this service exists!

Highly recommend. This is a great service for people who understand the benefits of composting but don't have what it takes to do it themselves at home. Friendly, professional, and reliable people.
