If we had an effective regulatory structure, someone in the federal government could hold Quince accountable for their false claims that they sell their products in compostable bags. PLEASE DO NOT include their bags in the drop-off or curbside collection program.

Don't toss your pumpkin in the landfill. Give them to us!

We can take up to one pumpkin outside of your bucket without charging extra fees. If you need more, let us know!

Did you know that you can compost yard debris with us? Yeah... it's just as important as food and somehow still not widely addressed in PA. If you missed your collection day, we can help!

In case your missed it... Zero Waste Wrangler and the Compost People are one and the same. We are still working to integrate our services and expand into new opportunity for our residential customers. While residential collection produces a very small amount of oyster (and other) shells we'd still think it's valuable to offer this service at the residential level. Watch this space while we figure out how best to do that.

With every new partnership and customer we redouble our commitment to zero waste. We are especially happy to be involved with the work of the Oyster Recovery Partnership because it involves reducing landfill and rebuilding habitat. Thanks to my brother Steve Onopa for taking the photo and Muddy Waters Oyster Bar, Luke Wholey's Wild Alaskan Grille and Eleven for separating the shells.
