Compost Your Halloween Pumpkins!

Oh my gourd-ness, pumpkin season is upon us! CompostNow members have two options for composting their pumpkins:

1. You can compost your pumpkins at any time by putting your pumpkin scraps inside your CompostNow bin. You may need to break your pumpkin into smaller pieces to ensure they fit! You can request extra bins.
2. CompostNow will have a pumpkin drop-off station at our warehouses where members can drop off their pumpkin(s) to be composted free of charge from November 1st - November 19th, 2023.
3. This year, we have three incredible partners of CompostNow hosting pumpkin drop-off stations as well! The details for these drop-off events are as follows:
