Curbside Composting Collection for Businesses or Schools

If food waste comprises a significant portion of the waste stream at your school or business, you may want to consider collecting it separately from trash. Food waste can be composted on-site OR transported to Intervale Compost Products. Contact CSWD at 872-8111 for assistance.

Additionally, there are three private haulers that collect food waste from schools, businesses and other institutions in Chittenden County:

All Cycle Waste: 802-864-3615

Gauthier Trucking: 802-879-4020

Earthgirl Composting: 802-223-1271. Earthgirl provides commercial pick up for non-food related businesses as well as residential collection to certain neighborhoods in Chittenden County.

*The tipping fee at the Intervale Compost for commercial haulers is $35 per ton.

For additional information about composting at work download CSWD's Composting at Work guide.

CSWD also offers a variety of composting education programs for students of all ages, including in-class presentations, tours of Intervale Compost Products, theater presentations, and curricular materials all at no charge.
