No. As of April 1, 2023, compostable bags, plates, utensils and other paper materials cannot be placed in compost bins.
Only two types of items are allowed in your curbside compost cart:
- Food Scraps:(produce, bread, bones, meat, cheese, eggshells, coffee grounds, etc.).
- Please remove all produce stickers, rubber bands, twist-ties, and anything that is not considered food (tea bags and coffee filters are not acceptable).
- Yard and Plant Trimmings: leaves, twigs, flowers, grass, branches, etc.
- Please keep rocks out of your cart.
Residents that utilize 3-gallon compostable bags to collect food scraps may continue to do so, but only 3-gallon (or smaller), approved compostable bags are allowed. If you do not use 3-gallon compostable bags, all items must be placed unbagged and loose in your compost cart. View A1 Organic's list of acceptable compostable bags.
