Toward Zero Waste for Residents
Single Family Residents
Single Stream Recycling
All recyclable materials go into one
large tote for easier recycling. Items
must be empty, clean, and dry to avoid
contamination and ensure that they
get recycled. Recycling is an easy way
to reduce waste, conserve resources,
and protect the environment.
Why Compost
Composting is an important way to
minimize food waste, divert organics
from landfills, and help decrease our
collective climate footprint. Organic
waste is taken to Green Earth
Technology in Lynden, WA to be
converted into useable, sellable
compost product.

Additional Resources
We are looking for multifamily complexes who want to add FoodPlus! curbside composting services to their waste management program. We can offer a number of incentives to residents and property managers looking to reduce waste. Adding FoodPlus! is not only good for the planet it can also help save money, on average FoodPlus! is $25 less a yard than landfill service. Please contact us to get started!
