Food Scrap Recycling News: Credit Cards and Stronger Compostable Bags

Scarsdale Food Scrap Recycling Participants - here’s some great news! First, the Scarsdale Recycling Center now accepts credit cards! You can still use a check, but all credit cards and debit cards are now accepted as well. Second, Scarsdale has switched to a stronger compostable liner bag. They are available at the Scarsdale Recycling Center office (110 Secor Road, open Mon-Sat, 8am-3pm) and at the same pricing. Now it’s easier and neater than ever to be a food scrap recycler!

Since the food scrap recycling program began in January 2017 over 700,000 pounds of food scraps have been collected and turned into useful compost! If you would like to participate in the food scrap recycling program, or have any questions about it, please email composting@scarsdale.com.
