Cornerstone Card adds compost collection for apartments at Denver Compost Collective

Cornerstone welcomes Denver Compost Collective to the Cornerstone Card resident discount and local partnership program

COMPOST COLLECTION FOR APARTMENT DWELLERS IN DENVER

Get weekly compost collection service from your front door with Denver Compost Collective — a small local company with the intent to make a living by playing in the dirt. Denver Compost Collective focuses on addressing some of the largest problems of our time, from climate change and inequality to poverty and alienation from nature, by engaging with Denver neighbors in the practices of composting, community farming and sharing collective resources.

Designed specifically for Denver apartment dwellers, Denver Compost Collective provides each program participant with a durable, food-grade 1.25 gallon pail that has a “Life Latch” odor-controlling lid. The pail is swapped each week — rain or shine — for a clean, empty pail. The program starts a five dollars per week, and service can be paused, cancelled or changed at any time, with larger pail options available.

How does it work?
