Turning Green Into Green

Transform green waste into a valuable compost product rather than landfill it

What is Green Waste?

Green waste is any organic material that can be composted and is usually made up of both commercial and residential lawn, garden and tree trimmings. Green waste contains high in levels of nitrogen, which is a valuable ingredient to composting production and soil health.

What Materials Are Processed?

Grass clippings, yard and bush trimmings, tree branches, bark, natural untreated wood, palm trees, and weeds can all be processed into compost.

Why Recycle Green Waste Into Compost?

Quality compost is a product that has high demand and can be profitable to produce. Materials sent to a landfill have significant disposal costs associated. Many European countries have taken legislative measures to eliminate food waste from being sent to landfills, and the U.S. is beginning to follow suit. Soon, your state or province may require you to divert all food waste from landfills.
