Recycle Food. It’s Easy To Do.
Commercial Food Scrap Collection
Nearly 200 businesses in King County: grocery stores, restaurants and home and garden centers, reduce their disposed waste by composting their organics. Organic materials from commercial establishments suitable for composting include:
- food scraps
- food-soiled paper
- waxed cardboard
- plants
- wood scraps
Recycling organics and food residuals decreases the amount of waste going to the landfill, and instead recycles it into rich, earth-friendly compost at a regional composting facility (external).
Search the King County "What do I do With" Web Site for locations to dispose of or compost food and other organics. King County encourages organic recycling, and especially food wastes, along with their other business related recycling.
