Residential Solutions

Our solutions for residential customers allow households in a serviced suburb or area to recycle their kitchen waste.  By using “bokashi” additive in sealed containers, food waste is stabilised and allows for the safe recycling of all food scraps, including meat & fish, egg shells and tea-bags & coffee grounds.  By separating food waste at source and treating it with bokashi, households can eliminate smelly bins & increase the amount of other recyclables collected and protect against municipal service delivery problems.

Our customers receive a start-up pack that includes an Urban Farms Recycling branded “Food Waste Only” bucket with lid, “bokashi” & scoop as well as a month’s supply of compostable bin liners.  Customers are asked to leave their filled bin liners on the sidewalk for collection on the specified day for recycling.  On a monthly basis each household will receive 1 kg bag of Bokashi additive and 5 compostable liners.
