Curbside Organics in Anchorage: 2021 Season Compost Totals

 – By

 

ANCHORAGE -- Alaska Waste’s curbside organics program wrapped up for the 2021 season, concluding the third year of service for this pilot program.

Thanks to our customers’ participation in curbside organics Alaska Waste composted a total of 106,440 pounds (53.22 tons) of residential organics this summer in Anchorage.

From May through October, around 110 households in the Bayshore and Klatt neighborhoods used curbside organics bin to compost grass clippings, yard debris, and food waste. Their organics were taken to a Palmer farm where it is now being turned into compost.

By participating, residents helped to prolong the life of the landfill, reduce harmful emissions, and create a reusable, local resource.
