Important Update: Fall 2026 Backyard Food Scraps Compost Bin Sale Postponed
Due to recently imposed tariffs on these Canadian made compost bins, we must postpone our Fall 2026 Backyard Food Scraps Compost Bin Sale to the Spring 2027. These unexpected changes affect our ability to offer bins at the reduced prices made possible through bulk purchasing.
We know many residents were looking forward to starting or expanding their backyard composting, and we sincerely appreciate your patience as we navigate these new circumstances. Our team is actively working on alternative options and will share updated sale information as soon as it becomes available.
Please check back for future announcements regarding new dates and product availability.

Why Compost?
Organic waste comprises thirty percent of household trash going into Westchester incinerators, where it has no chance to decompose and offers very little BTU value. Homeowners who compost not only extend the life of our incinerators and reduce the cost of collecting household garbage, but also recycle the nutrients in organic waste to create a valuable soil amendment for their gardens.
