Fantastic team and product - I recently attended the grand opening of the Mt. Juliet location and was blown away at the hospitality, smooth operation and rich compost I came away with for my garden! No excuses this year.. thanks guys!

Great communication, the email reminders are very helpful. Good price/fee and you get “free” soil out of it.

Who knew composting could be so easy? All we have to do is dump our food scraps in a little green bucket and get it to the corn each week. Compost Nashville does all of the work. Their communication and timely service is impressive. The best part is together we’re helping our community by keeping food out of our landfills AND providing nutrient-rich compost for Tennessee farms and community gardens. That’s a win-win!

Compost Nashville makes composting so easy! We’ve been using their service and absolutely love it. The pickups are reliable, the process is simple, and it feels great knowing our food scraps are being put to good use instead of ending up in the trash or our dog’s tummy. Their communication is always clear and professional, and they make sustainability feel totally achievable for a busy family. Highly recommend!

This is the easiest right thing you can do! Since my child became a toddler, I have been trying to figure out ways to reduce our household food waste (real ones know), and Compost Nashville makes this effortless. They do all the dirty work; all you have to do is scrape your food waste into the bin and set it out each week!

Compost Nashville has been, hands down, one of the best services my boyfriend and I pay for on a monthly basis! We recently moved down here from Michigan and starting going to the Farmer's Market where Compost Nashville has a stand. We were greeted by Beadle's (the owner) warm smile and immense knowledge on composting! Coming from people who rent and have neighbors that might not particularly enjoy the smell of home composting, Compost Nashville was the next best thing! They drop off a white 5-gallon bucket (side note: our white bucket was first used at Burger King! Good job on reusing, Compost Nashville!), you fill the bucket up, and they pick it up once a week! We even get an email the day before pickup reminding us to put our composting out. Once we began composting with Compost Nashville, we truly began to see how much food waste a couple makes per week. We're currently making efforts to decrease our food waste and saving some money in the meantime. Oh, and another positive: Twice a year, you receive a dividend of the compost created. Fresh produce from our garden with the compost we created...here we come! Refuse, Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, and Compost Nashville!
