So easy to use (this PATCH poster loves it) because you can put vegetable peelings, egg shells, coffee grinds, meat, fish, and bones (BUT NO Oils or Liquids). And take note that meat, fish,and bones SHOULD NOT go into people's backyard composters because of animals!

When your food waste bag is full, just bring it to the Transfer Station. Large green toters have been placed to the right of the tip floor to accept vegetable and fruit scraps, as well as meat, fish, dairy and bones. This option is a good choice for those who do not use a backyard composter, or don’t use their backyard composter year
round. Kitchen scrap program useful even if you backyard compost....the meat, fish, dairy and bones.

The toters are emptied by EOMS (Environmental Operations Management Services, full service recycling and waste removal company, Brockton/Bridgewater based) and the contents taken to a farm in Medway where the food scraps are composted in the soil...that is why they can include meat, fish, and bones.

ACCEPTABLE items: Fruits, Vegetables, Meat, Poultry, Seafood, Bones, Rice, Beans, Pasta, Bakery Items, Cheese, Egg Shells, Coffee grounds and filters, Biodegradable liners.

DO NOT PUT: Liquids, Oils, Grease or plastic bags!
