Non-Residential Composting Program

If your non-residential unit (hair salon, church, small store etc.) generates small amounts of Green Cart organics you can sign up for our Yellow Cart program to have your non-residential organics collected each week. 

Our Yellow Cart program allows you to put out a maximum of three yellow organic carts at the roadside each week. Materials placed in the Yellow Carts must be contained in a tied certified compostable bag or compostable paper bag.

Your non-residential unit (hair salon, church, small store etc.) must be located on a residential organic collection route to be eligible.
