Our food waste recycling program was designed to efficiently serve organizations with sustainability or zero waste goals.
Steps to Success
SMART Recycling’s goal is to make your company’s transition to food waste recycling smooth and easy so you can divert as much as possible from the landfill. Our program includes the following:
Implementation and Training
We will train at your location about what can be composted, what CAN’T be composted and cart maintenance. We will also provide all signage and periodic training upon request.
SMART Service
We developed consistent standards for our food waste solutions to ensure service efficiency. See below to learn about our SMART service standards.
Organics Separation Strategy
SMART Recycling will conduct a site assessment and waste audit. We will then provide recommendations about the bin style/setup and number of bins needed.
Compost Facility
SMART Recycling partners with local compost facilities to convert food waste into some of the best compost available. You can trust that your food waste will be transformed into 100% organic and nutrient rich compost, specially formulated for Master Gardeners and Organic Farms.
SMART Carts
Equipped with a lock & seal lid and caster wheels, our custom designed SMART Carts provide a feasible solution for storing and transporting 300 plus pounds of wet waste efficiently.
Our carts do not require the use of a liner, which provides even further savings to our partners. SMART carts also save employees the potential danger of hoisting heavy garbage bags into a dumpster or compactor.
SMART Service Standards
SMART partners share a common vision of a less wasteful world, and many of them have adopted sustainability or zero waste goals. To better serve vision-driven organizations, we developed consistent standards for our food waste solutions. SMART standards are designed to ensure that our commercial partners meet their sustainability goals in a consistent and efficient way. They are:
