Curbside compost in Fairhaven

October 23, 2024 by Staff Writer

Thanks to the Fairhaven Sustainability Committee we now have access to Curbside Composting.

Interested residents need to sign up at BlackEarthCompost.com. You must purchase a bin and compostable bags and there is a monthly fee. They pick up every other week. You can compost a much wider variety of foods and compostable materials.

We are so excited to have access to this service!  To get this service to come to Fairhaven we had to get 65 interested households. Fee is $89.99 every six months, or $16.99/month. Get a 13-gallon starter kit for $39.50. 

Fairhaven residents can now buy a Black Earth compost bin like this one for curbside pickup of food waste. Photo courtesy of Carolyn Nunez.
