Straightforward & easy Straightforward & easy. I like having a place to dispose of my food waste that isn't the garbage or garbage disposal and I like even more getting my bags of compost in the spring. The pricing is reasonable and the service is predictable. Also always get a quick reply to emails or phone calls.

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!!

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!

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?

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!
