Weekly Food Scraps & Compostables
Collection Service in Ben Avon & Ben Avon Heights

The Problem

Food scraps and expired food are a fact of life. When they are sent to the landfill they are, at best, trapped with a mix of toxic and non-recyclable trash for decades. At worst, they break down and release methane into the atmosphere which is a potent greenhouse gas. (Photo credit Waste Today Magazine)
