Bennett Compost

Our goal at Bennett Compost is to make composting easy and accessible for all Philadelphians.

At Bennett Compost, we understand the unique challenges of urban life. That's why we designed our service with you, Philadelphia residents, in focus. Our compact five-gallon compost bins are ideal for individuals and families, featuring an airtight lid to lock in odors and deter pests. Our “what you can compost list” shows you everything you can currently put into your bucket.

Enjoy hassle-free weekly pickups from your doorstep or apartment complex, and if you need, we'll happily deliver a clean bucket or any of our premium compost products during our visit. Join the over 6,000 Philadelphia households who have already discovered how easy composting can be!

We also collaborate with Philadelphia businesses and residential buildings to offer sustainable waste management solutions.

You'll be surprised by how much you can compost, from paper and cardboard to pet fur and hair. We serve a wide range of clients, including coffee shops, restaurants, breweries, florists, offices, residential buildings, salons, and event venues, tailoring solutions to fit their specific needs and compostable volumes.
