Milwaukee Launches Year-Long Organics Composting Pilot Study
Nearly 500 households are participating in the study and utilizing brown organics carts for organics waste.
Organics collection continues to gain traction in cities across the U.S., and Milwaukee is the most recent city to test out the system. In November 2016, the city launched a year-long organics composting study, and nearly 500 households are participating in the study and utilizing brown organics carts for organics waste.
The pilot program costs $12.75 a month, and pickup is every other week during the winter and weekly during the spring, summer and fall seasons.
