How to Set Up Office Composting: Who to Call First

Starting an office composting program is simpler when you make the right first call: contact your property manager to confirm that on-site organics collection is allowed, where containers can be staged, and how haulers will access the building. Next, reach out to a commercial compost hauler to size service and pricing, then appoint an internal sponsor to run launch and training. This logistics-first sequence—central to Recycler Routing Guide’s approach—avoids missed pickups, contamination, and surprise fees—while right-sizing service for your building’s density and routines. Below is your office composting service setup guide with clear steps, definitions, and checklists you can put to work immediately.
