Question 1

Which areas do you cover?

Accepted Answer

Currently we cover from Lewes to Portslade, with Brighton and Hove in between.
We are planning to open a site in Lancing to be able to cover as far west as Worthing soon.

Question 2

Can I include cooked food waste?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we can compost cooked foods along with veg peelings and egg shells.

Question 3

Do you compost vegware or compostable plastics?

Accepted Answer

We used to but found that they are difficult to break down and require a lot of time. There is also concern as to what chemicals could be in these products so we do not take them any longer. Paper bags are fine.

Question 4

Do I need a compost container?

Accepted Answer

We provide a sealable food waste bucket for you.

Question 5

Do I need to wash my bucket?

Accepted Answer

No, we collect the bucket and leave you a clean one every time.

Question 6

How often do you collect?

Accepted Answer

We collect from domestic members every 3 weeks.
Simply leave the bucket outside on collection days and you'll find a clean one awaiting you by the end of the day.

Question 7

What if I forget to leave my bucket out?

Accepted Answer

Not to worry, we will be back around on the next collection day, but if you're running out of space then do reach out to us and we can try and get to you asap.
