New Registration Open to Compost Your Food Scraps

New Registration Open to Compost Your Food Scraps

For 6 months your food scraps can be collected for free to reduce food waste and return valuable compost to Greenbelt

  • Open to all Greenbelt residents.
  • A third round of registration to enroll in the program is underway. You will join 320 households who enrolled during the previous two registration periods.
  • Join the program as an individual household or in combination with close-by neighbors to help fill the 7-gallon bin for weekly pickup.
  • A good option if you have little space to do your own composting.
  • Composting will reduce food waste being landfilled, and lower greenhouse gas emissions coming from the landfill.
  • Purchase the collection bin for a one-time $20 cost.
  • To register, go to https://compostcrew.com/greenbelt/
  • Residents without digital access may register by calling Compost Crew Customer Service at 301-202-4450 or Luisa Robles at lrobles@greenbeltmd.gov.

Compost Crew will pick up your food scraps weekly and deliver them to their Compost Outpost at Trinity Church on Good Luck Road. Quality compost will be returned to Greenbelt for use as a soil-improving additive in community gardens and public spaces. Composting will reduce food waste going to the landfill and lower greenhouse gas emissions coming from the landfill. Compost Crew, the City of Greenbelt, and Trinity Assembly of God worked together to obtain funding for this pilot program through a USDA grant.
