About 25% of what we throw away is organic material such as food and food-soiled paper that could be put to better use as compost.

Waste haulers serving Eden Prairie are required by state statute to offer and charge for curbside organics recycling services to most households, regardless of participation. Request an organics recycling cart from your hauler and use the services you’re paying for.
