Residential Composting

Our residential composting program is up and running!

Although door-to-door pick-up is not a viable option at this time for residential composting, we have teamed up with the City of Pinecrest to create the first program of its kind in South Florida: A drop-off center for food scraps for large-scale residential composting.

We have already collected hundreds of thousands of pounds of residential food scraps in our first year, and we aim to replicate this formula throughout the county with other municipalities, neighborhoods, and large condominiums.

How It Works

Two drop-off areas, 24/7

1) A large drop off bin is located in front of the Pinecrest Public Library

2) Residential food scraps can also be dropped off at the bins located between the Community Center and Pinecrest Gardens (look for signs near the cottage)

* Everyone is Welcome!

Perhaps most incredible: Pinecrest is allowing anyone from anywhere to participate in their composting program. So come visit their farmer's market on Sundays!

This pilot program was initiated by Pinecrest Councilmember Shannon del Prado and is fully funded by Miami-Dade County District 7 Commissioner Raquel Regalado.

We are always looking for partnerships with other towns, neighborhoods associations, condos, and of course, businesses. If you would like to start large-scale composting please let us know.
