How does it work?
Receive a bucket

Collect your food scraps
Collect your food scraps over the week. For a list of what goes in, check out our FAQ.
We'll pick them up
We use carbon neutral transport to make the scraps collections worthwhile (carbon accounting)
We do the composting
Scraps are taken to our super efficient and well maintained composting hubs.
Compost for the community
The compost is donated back to community gardens, schools and contributing members
-
Not in our collection zone? (currently Hackett, Watson and Braddon only) Anyone in Canberra can pledge with us. When we reach 50 pledges in an area then we can staff a new scraps pick-up route.
-
Drop your scraps to us in Haig Park, Braddon on Thursday mornings, 8-9 am
Drops-offs incur a $3.50 service fee unless you are subscribed to our composting service.
Location:
Braddon, at our Haig Park composter, near the top of Mort st, in between Northbourne and the public toilet. (see map ref below)
Note: Our drop-off on Thursday 22 Dec did not run due to a Covid interruption. There will be a special once off drop-off at our Hackett composter (Mills st, behind the Hackett shops) on Monday 26 Dec, 8-9am.
Our Thursday morning drop-off will recommence from 29 Dec.
