At The Compost Company, we help businesses, institutions, and organizations across Middle Tennessee reduce landfill waste and meet their sustainability goals. From restaurants and universities to grocery stores and corporate campuses, we tailor our organic waste collection services to your needs — including bins, pickup frequency, and reporting.
Not a business? Local residents can still participate through our convenient drop-off locations across the region.
We keep it simple — here’s how we help businesses divert food waste effectively:
Our team visits your site to assess how much of your organic waste can be composted and where it’s coming from — kitchens, prep areas, or back-of-house operations.
We’ll help you choose the right compost bins for your space and create a service schedule that works with your operations, whether that’s daily, weekly, or event-based.
Every business is different. We’ll build a composting solution tailored to your needs — including staff training, signage, and ongoing reporting to help you reach your sustainability goals.
We work with businesses and institutions of all sizes to create simple, cost-effective composting programs that reduce waste and support sustainability goals. Whether you generate food waste in bulk or in batches, we tailor our solutions to your space and schedule.
