Blooming Good Service Key City Compost has always been quick to respond to my questions and any changes I need to make for my pickups. They are very professional and easy to work with. It makes me happy to be able to have my compostable trash put to use other than filling up the land fills. Even better, the soil I received from the compost made my hydrangea bloom like I've never seen before.

Easy-Peasy If only other home pickup services were this easy to business with! Not only is composting so important but they make it so easy. Love the online scheduling options!!

We are moving away and will miss this service We are moving away. Leaving this composting service behind is unfortunate for many reasons. First, it is simple, and free for folks living in downtown Frederick. Second, we got a bag of finished compost this fall, which we used to supplement our many street-side planters. Third, I get a feeling of great happiness to see so many white five-gallon containers out on front steps and porches on pickup day. I feel that I’m part of a great community. Fourth, the composting service has improved our weekly curbside trash collection. It’s all of a piece with the colorful boats on the creek in the winter and the festivals in town throughout the year. It’s a piece of the whole that contributes to a wonderful, inviting community. Who wouldn’t want to live in Frederick?

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.

If you don’t want to deal with the mess… If you don’t want to deal with the mess of doing your own compost, this is a great service. They are easy to work with, collecting your bucket on a regular schedule and replacing it with a new one. Three customer service features I like are the yearly billing discount option, the pick up reminder emails, and the pick up person’s effort to collect the bucket even when I forget to put it out. Also I appreciate being able to stop service when went on vacation.
