The Full Scoop

Easy Booking

Write us an email at info@bootstrapcompost.com to schedule your one-off pickup. Let us know your date, details and approximate waste volume, and we’ll contact you to finalize the appointment and handle the rest.


Temporary Bin Rental

Receive a sanitized 5- to 65-gallon bucket or bin with compostable liners; use it until you’re ready, then we collect it.


Clear Acceptance Guidelines

We provide a simple “Yes/No” list so you know exactly what can go in the bin—no surprises, no contamination.


Rapid Removal & Cleanup

After your event or clean-out, we’ll swing by on the agreed day (or within 24 hours) to pick up your full bin and leave it spotless.


Transparent, Flat-Rate Pricing

One-time fees by bin size and location mean you know the cost up front—no hidden extras.

Step 3

We deliver your bins and signs and present to your staff on composting

Step 4

We serve you and give you quarterly waste diversion impact reports!

It makes perfect sense. As a business, I believe it is our responsibility to provide our customers with excellent service – that means serving them in more ways than one by composting all of our food scraps. Whatever comes from the earth, we want to put back into it and not into a garbage bag, being of no use to our environment!
