Small food scrap haulers are growing across Vermont. These haulers provide a bucket to fill with food scraps and then curbside pickup to take the buckets to a larger compost facility. Small business owners are now gaining more traction due to the July 1 law banning food scraps from the landfill.
Roots Compost, is one of the many food scrap haulers that has seen more business recently since the July 1 law banning food scraps. This small business has been able to thrive thanks to the new compost law.
CSWD and Green Mountain Compost have also seen an uptick in the amount of food scraps dropped off at their facilities.
