If this day is your next scheduled Bucket Swap/Compost Pickup Day, please remember to place your full/semi-full bucket(s), with lid(s) snapped securely on top, in a safe, easily accessible area of your property, such as on your front step/porch/patio, in front of your garage, or at the end of a walkway leading to your drive, by no later than 8:00 AM Central Standard Time (CST) on this day.

Failure to do so can result in your household being skipped until your next scheduled Bucket Swap/Compost Pickup day.

PLEASE DO NOT PLACE YOUR BUCKET(S) AT THE END OF YOUR DRIVEWAY OR NEAR THE CURB, WHERE IT/THEY MAY BE MISTAKEN FOR TRASH AND DISPOSED OF BY YOUR MUNICIPALITY, LOST, STOLEN, BURIED IN SNOW, OR DAMAGED.

Please note: Due to the ever-changing nature of our subscriber count and pickup routes, we cannot guarantee that your Bucket Swap/Compost Pickup will be completed at any particular time of day. Thank you in advance for your patience.

WHAT TO EXPECT IF YOU MISS A BUCKET SWAP/COMPOST PICKUP:

Please be aware that while we may, and often times do, as a courtesy, send text messages and/or emails or make phone calls to our subscribers to ask if they can place their buckets outside for us, for in the event we arrive at their household to find no bucket waiting for us, we are not obligated, per our Terms of Service, to do so.

Furthermore, because of the sheer number of subscribers we serve each week, we are unable to wait more than a few minutes at any individual household for a response to our text messages/emails/phone calls before moving on to our next stop.

Should we skip your household, due to your bucket not being placed outside for us by the time we arrive to complete your scheduled Bucket Swap/Compost Pickup, we may, upon request, be able to make arrangements with you for a special, one-time Bucket Swap/Compost Pickup at Green Bay Plaza on Military Avenue in Green Bay on a later date. This is something we have done for several subscribers. That said, please know that under no circumstances will we be making a return trip to your household prior to your next scheduled Bucket Swap/Compost Pickup day, as doing so would be highly inefficient for us.

IMPORTANT TO NOTE:

If you have more material than you can comfortably fit in your bucket, materials that are too large to fit in your bucket (such as plain/matte cardboard pizza boxes, garden waste, such as end-of-season tomato plants and annual flowers, or seasonal/ornamental items, including pumpkins, gourds, corn stalks, etc.), or a lot of excess, dry, paper-based items, such as toilet paper and/or paper towel tubes, plain paper, or egg cartons, please see the FAQs section of our website regarding this or Contact Us to learn what your options are.

Please note: All buckets you may receive from us will come with a lid on top, a BPI-certified compostable liner inside, and approximately half a pound of sawdust/wood shavings in the bottom, to absorb moisture and help control odor.

If the bucket you are receiving is your first bucket from us, you will find inside your bucket a Welcome Packet, which includes a Welcome Letter and a printed list of Acceptable and Not Acceptable Materials for inclusion in our buckets.

If you any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to Contact Us or visit our Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) page. We are always here to help!

New $15/month Residential Compost Pickup & Drop-Off Services debuting January 1st, 2023

As a follow-up to our “Price Changes” announcement from yesterday, we are happy to announce that, effective January 1st, 2023, we will be debuting new, Once-a-Month versions of our Residential Compost Pickup and Drop-Off Services, so that we can continue to provide service to Residential subscribers who are unable to pay more than $15.00/month for our services.

These new services will see us perform just one Bucket Swap/Compost Pickup for subscribers to them per month, for just $15.00/month.

We believe that many of our current subscribers may be a good fit for these new plans, especially those whose households routinely produce less than 10 pounds of organic waste each week.

That said, if you reside in a household that produces, on average, 15-20+ pounds of waste each week, we highly recommend sticking with one of our $20/month services (either our Residential Compost Pickup Service, or our Residential Compost Drop-Off Service) going into the new year, as for just $5 extra per month, you will be entitled to at least two Bucket Swap/Compost Pickups each month under these plans.

If you would like to switch, as January of 2023 (or whenever your first renewal date will be in the new year) to one of these new, less expensive plans, all you need to do is contact us using any of the contact methods available at www.GBCompost.com/Contact to let us know that you would like to make the switch and we will set up the switch to occur automatically and coordinate your new Bucket Swap/Compost Pickup schedule with you as we get closer to your transition date.

Please note: Our Add-a-Bucket option will be available to subscribers of either of these new plans, at the same price as they will be to all other Residential subscribers, which is $12.50/month, per bucket. Also, If you are currently signed up for email reminders with us, you will continue to receive email reminders from us on the day prior to your monthly Bucket Swap/Compost Pickup days under this new plan.

If you have any questions about these new plans, you may contact us using any of the contact methods available at www.GBCompost.com/Contact.

Until next time, best wishes and happy composting!

Greener Bay Compost wins Wisconsin DNR’s 2022 Recycling Excellence Award for “Overall Program”

We are proud to announce that we have been awarded the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources’ (DNR) 2022 Recycling Excellence Award for “Overall Program,” thanks in large part to our cornerstone Residential Compost Pickup Service.

Per the Wisconsin’s DNR’s website:

The Department of Natural Resources recognizes outstanding recycling and waste minimization efforts through its annual Recycling Excellence Award program.

The DNR offers the Recycling Excellence Awards not only in recognition of efforts made but also as a way of highlighting ideas with proven track records that others might use to improve their recycling endeavors.

The “Overall Program” category of the Awards recognizes programs that are robust and constantly improving, demonstrating a commitment to advance the overall recycling/diversion program.
