Office Composting

Our concierge, "white glove" organics collection program

How it works

When you reach out to Reclaimed Organics about setting up organics collection in your office, you'll talk to one of our TRUE Certified Waste Advisors regarding your specific program needs. In-take might take a few emails back and forth, and also includes the shipping time for your SimpleHuman bin to arrive.

Once a plan has been made and your new bin is "in-hand", we're off to the races! One of our team members will install your bin(s) with proper signage in your office, and the regular pick-up of your organic waste can begin!

Receiving service in your office from Reclaimed Organics also includes access to an online portal where you can view your site’s metrics and diversion amounts.

Pricing

One-time: $850 includes fees associated with administrative costs, initial SimpleHuman bin ordering and installation, and a virtual team Lunch & Learn.

Recurring: $60 for the first bin, $15 for each additional bin. Flat rate for 5 bins or more!

Want to get ahead of the game?

Answer the following questions in your initial email to our team to get a leg up on the process:

  • Office address

  • How many people are in your office on a daily basis?

  • How many floors is your office? (If applicable)

  • How many people are on each floor? (If applicable)

  • Do you have kitchens/cafeterias/pantries where the cans would be placed?

Small Business Composting

Our organics collection program for small businesses in NYC

How it works

In some cases, Reclaimed Organics is able to service Small Businesses such as coffeeshops and bakeries. Because the needs for these kinds of businesses can vary so much, we have to made decisions on a case by case basis.

Answering the following questions in your outreach email would be the most helpful way to determine if Reclaimed Organics is the right program for your business:

  • Your business address

  • What kind of small business is this?

  • What sort of pick-up frequency were you hoping for?

  • Do you have an idea of your current hauling metrics?
