Commercial Organics Pick Up

Clearwater Compost offers an environmentally sustainable option for trash removal at your

restaurant, bar, office, grocery store, and other businesses! 

Don't let the scrap food go to waste! Recycle those valuable nutrients back into gardens, fields and lawns!  

Accepted material includes all food waste, clean office paper, paper towels, Christmas trees, pumpkins, brush and yard waste, and more!  

 

 

You are provided with 32 gallon lidded rolling totes and Biobag liners, included. 

Pick up is once a week, or as needed. 

We provide informational material for you and your employees

to learn what can and cannot be composted. 

We are also happy to come to your business, and help

you get set up to compost and guide employees. 

​

 

During your day to day, there will be another waste receptacle for compostable material near the existing refuse trash receptacle.  It will be marked as Compost and have a list of what is and is not accepted posted with it.  We provide compostable Biobag receptacle can liners included with service, available in a variety of sizes and styles.  Food waste will be tied up at the end of the day, and taken out to our totes.  

​

There are commercially compostable products now available through US Foods and other suppliers.  These products include clear plastic cups, cutlery, plates, napkins, to go containers and more. 

Ask your local supplier about compostable disposable products! 

If you're shopping online from a reputable site, look for products that

say "Compostable" or are made with PLA Plastic or PHA. 

Also look for these certifications, as long as it's a trusted source.

If you're not sure, just ask!

We can save a lot more than food waste from being wasted!

Choose to use sustainable products and send them to the right place so they can return to the earth instead of taking up space in the landfill. 

​

We take all the compostable material back to Clearwater Compost

and add it to large hot piles of active compost.

Inside the piles, beneficial bacteria eat the material breaking it down into its simplest nutrients; mainly nitrogen, carbon, phosphorus, and potassium.  The piles get up to 150 F during their most active time!  When the material is finished breaking down it is dark brown, crumbly and has a sweet earthy aroma.  This finished compost is then added to garden beds, lawns, crop fields and potted plants replenishing nutrients.  It also adds beneficial microbes building a healthy living soil, ideal for growing.  

​

Compost builds healthy soil.  Healthy soil grows healthy food.  Healthy food grows healthy people.
