Garbage to Garden

I love Garbage to Garden! Not only is it great for the environment, it provides an easy way for everyone to compost and as a business they support their community! The service is $ 14 month, they pick up your compost on your same trash day, and leave you a rinsed and clean bucket for your next pickup. You’re never left with a stinky mess to deal with!
Each month they offer many volunteer opportunities which support local organizations or you can volunteer with GtG. Each month you volunteer, you get a free month of service! I love this option, since half the time I’m already planning to volunteer and get an added bonus!
The staff are friendly, and their service area continues to expand. I save on trash costs, since in Portland we pay per bag, sometimes I can go a whole month and only use 1 bag — most of my waste can be recycled or composted!

Garbage to Garden is pretty damn fantastic!
They offer curbside composting – for $ 14/​month and if you volunteer it’s FREE! (yes FREE!!) You can compost any food scrap, meat, dairy even BONES!
It has really cut down on the amount of trash I have and I feel better about helping the environment. I can even get actual compost any time I want with no extra charge! Volunteering is a snap & the folks over there always need help bagging compost (when the pile isn’t frozen! ha), organizing, de-​stickering & re-​stickering buckets and more! They’re always happy to see you and they care!

This is a great service for us urban dwelling folk who don’t have the space or yard for composting!
For a small monthly fee –you get an air tight bucket to dump all your food scraps in through out the week– they pick it up weekly– and drop off a new clean bucket for the next weeks organic waste.
Not only does it cut down on the amount of city trash bags you have to use in a month– but you get free compost when you want it for your house hold plants, small gardens, out door plants, flowers or whatever you have that needs soil an fertilizers!-
I think this is a great service and great concept!
I truely Encourage all to try– it pays for it self just in the cost savings of city trash bags :-)
