Turn your food waste back into food for the city Turn your food waste into food for the city! Very easy service to use.

Easy AND Important! Couldn’t ask for an easier way to move forward on a path towards an environmentally friendly and sustainable home. We have less than one bag of trash a week now and it is never stinky! It is such a great feeling to know that all of our food waste is going back into the ground in a nourishing way, rather than being trapped in a landfill and contributing to atmospheric methane levels. Thank you, Key City Compost! Frederick is so lucky to have you!

I love having home compost pick-up I love having home compost pick-up! I'm so appreciative of the job Key Compost does every week. They made it really easy for us to get started here in Park Fairfax. the collection bucket is nice and large--I often leave the bucket out every other week and so far it hasn't been an issue. The staff is really nice and responsive and I haven't had any issues with compost not being picked up. Everyone should have home compost collection!

Good for the environment Good for the environment, good for our community. The composting service is good for the environment by moving compostable materials out of landfills and converting them to usable compost. It helps our community's bottom line by reducing trash collection fees. It also helps keep plastic trash bags out of the wast stream. Since all the messy stuff goes in the compost bin, the rest of the trash is essentially dry so I can use a paper bag to dispose of it.
