oh yes! If you don't want them, send them my way! It's good for mulch and compost, so take as many as you can get.

Straw or hay - Certainly - for mulch or composting.

He has prob realized how much less he pays for "garbage" removal, coffee grounds are pretty heavy but not every place realizes this is a way to save. A win-win if you will.

Bring in the GARB!!!!!!

Mind you, I didn't have any trouble answering the question!

I used to be hooked up with a place like that, heavier on the juicing and smoothies than coffee. You could pull up and they would help you haul Rubbermaid bins of the stuff out to your truck. The owner had pigs but they could only eat so much!

We need more of this kind of thing. Big cities can have organics collection (Seattle does that right?) but it's hard almost anywhere else. Has to be person to person.

toxcrusadr, I know how lucky I am! I mean, he drops it off in my driveway.

Reno is making some baby steps towards grassroots sustainability. I encountered this operation at Earth Day this year, and I wish them well (as long as they stay away from my source). If nothing else, I think I want their logo as a tattoo. Unfortunately, it looks like they are running into trouble with respect to the contracts granted to WM.

Hey that's great. They have (had) a bike-based operation on our University campus to haul cafeteria food scraps for composting. I think it's evolved into a motorized one now, maybe with electric vehicles or something green. I know of a similar operation (with trucks not bikes though) in Columbus OH to pick up restaurant food waste. They did run afoul of the big trash co. related to the city contract. It really bugs me that trash companies demand all the volume they can get simply because they make money by the ton, so recycling cuts into their revenue and profit.
