Scraps

Scraps Welcome to Scraps! Since 2017, Scraps has been leading the way to making composting widespread in the Denver area.

From our innovative roots as a bike-based composting pickup service tailored to apartments and condos, to our current service area spanning the Denver Metro and all manner of residential and commercial customers, we're proud to have kept more than 1.5 million pounds of material from the landfill and counting. We believe composting is a simple, adaptable, scalable action with a multitude of positiv

e benefits - from supporting local gardeners and farmers, to rebuilding soil health, to fighting climate change.

OK y’all, just a few more slots to fill for our zero waste crew at Outside Days this year! this is a small hard-working behind-the-scenes crew, making sure the compost and recycling outweigh the trash and that every waste stream is clean. zero waste crew is a fantastic job for folks who don’t mind fast-paced work in a busy environment, helping to make a real measurable impact - making one of the city’s most massive events one of its most sustainable too! 🎉🌱♻️ DM us if you’re interested in joining!

of course we celebrate Earth Day every day over here - but today we’re especially grateful for the nearly 11 million pounds of organic matter you’ve helped us keep out of the landfill (!!), and for the reminder that small actions, done together, do create real, scalable change. and now this year you’re helping us turn that material into compost ourselves! in just a month we’ve delivered more than 100 yards of compost to our community, with hundreds more yards on the way. 🪏 together we’re creating more nutrient-dense, drought-tolerant, healthier soils for us all - an especially important action (here in Colorado especially) on the heels of a record-breaking warm and dry winter, entering into a precarious springtime. keep choosing Mother Nature, and she’ll keep choosing us. let’s act in honor of Earth Day, today and every day, even when the chips are down. love from all of us at Scraps 🪏✨👩🏽‍🌾🫜🌱☀️

it's only the beginning of March, but the sun is out (and will be til 7pm, woohoo!), fall bulbs are sprouting through the warming ground, and we're thinking about adding compost to our garden come springtime - and we're making compost like gangbusters! if prepping your garden bed, homestead or lawn for another season is on your mind too, now's a great time to order your compost delivery from us! check out our compost order page here - complete with a calculator to help you determine how much you need! we're also scheduling several upcoming distribution & sale events - stay tuned!

After nearly a decade making sure your food scraps, yard trimmings & other organics stay out of the landfill, we’re thrilled to now be turning it all into finished compost, in-house!

we can’t wait for you to get your hands on the good stuff! locally diverted food scraps, yard debris and compostable products, made into food for your soil. 🌱 visit the link in our bio to order your compost for this season 🪏🪴🫜👩🏽‍🌾

this is Way, and she’s the definition of small but mighty. Way has been a customer, supporter, advocate & mobilizer for composting at least since we’ve known her - now going on seven years! - and in that time we’ve learned how tirelessly, passionately & joyfully she has always advocated for the public good. it is always a delight when she shows up to events like this - on the new composting requirements for multifamily buildings - and reminds us that she’s still in our corner. Scraps couldn’t have grown this much & helped shape these exciting policy changes without community champions like her. we love you, Way! ❤️🥹
